This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    video: fbdev: fix OOB read in vga_8planes_imageblit()

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: video: fbdev: fix OOB read in vga_8planes_imageblit()

syzbot is reporting OOB read at vga_8planes_imageblit() [1], for
"cdat[y] >> 4" can become a negative value due to "const char *cdat".
