[PATCH 02/15] mISDN: Add support for group membership check

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Tue May 07 2013 - 10:21:37 EST


From: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@xxxxxxxx>

This patch adds a module parameter to allow a group access to the
mISDN devices. Otherwise, unpriviledged users on systems with ISDN
hardware have the ability to dial out, potentially causing expensive
bills.

Based on a different implementation by Patrick Koppen <isdn4linux@xxxxxxxxx>

We (at suse) have this patch in our trees at least since 2009 and want
to push it upstream now.
