This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.
===============
commit 4a3a99045177369700c60d074c0e525e8093b0fc upstream.
Jan points out that I forgot to make the needed fixes to the
lz4_uncompress_unknownoutputsize() function to mirror the changes done
in lz4_decompress() with regards to potential pointer overflows.
The only in-kernel user of this function is the zram code, which only
takes data from a valid compressed buffer that it made itself, so it's
not a big issue. But due to external kernel modules using this
function, it's better to be safe here.
