From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Dec 07 2010 - 21:00:05 EST


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

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

From: Senthil Balasubramanian <senthilkumar@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 2d3fca180710c6832de22c44155ce6a3a4953c6b upstream.

We are not handling all divide by zero cases in paprd.
Add additional checks for divide by zero cases in papard.

This patch has fixes intended for kernel 2.6.36.
