3.16.61-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Silvio Cesare <silvio.cesare@xxxxxxxxx> commit 353748a359f1821ee934afc579cf04572406b420 upstream. There is potential for the size and len fields in ubifs_data_node to be too large causing either a negative value for the length fields or an integer overflow leading to an incorrect memory allocation. Likewise, when the len field is small, an integer underflow may occur.
