[PATCH 47/70] sched/debug: Limit sd->*_idx range on sysctl

[Luis Henriques]

3.5.7.14 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@xxxxxxx>

commit 201c373e8e4823700d3160d5c28e1ab18fd1193e upstream.

Various sd->*_idx's are used for refering the rq's load average table
when selecting a cpu to run.  However they can be set to any number
with sysctl knobs so that it can crash the kernel if something bad is
given. Fix it by limiting them into the actual range.
