From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Dec 07 2010 - 19:43:07 EST


2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9284bcf4e335e5f18a8bc7b26461c33ab60d0689 upstream.

Ensure that we pass down properly validated iov segments before
calling into the mapping or copy functions.
