3.16.79-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Murphy Zhou <jencce.kernel@xxxxxxxxx> commit 63d37fb4ce5ae7bf1e58f906d1bf25f036fe79b2 upstream. It should not be larger then the slab max buf size. If user specifies a larger size, it passes this check and goes straightly to SMB2_set_info_init performing an insecure memcpy.
