[PATCH] autofs4: check dev ioctl size before allocating

From: Ian Kent
Date: Sun Apr 06 2014 - 21:42:19 EST


From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@xxxxxxxxxx>

There wasn't any check of the size passed from userspace before
trying to allocate the memory required.

This meant that userspace might request more space than allowed,
triggering an OOM.
