From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit 640d7efe4c08f06c4ae5d31b79bd8740e7f6790a upstream.

*_result[len] is parsed as *(_result[len]) which is not at all what we
want to touch here.
