From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Sat Sep 12 2015 - 19:23:33 EST


2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 12f4543f5d6811f864e6c4952eb27253c7466c02 upstream.

The maximum size for a DiSEqC command is 6, according to the
userspace API. However, the code allows to write up to 7 values:
drivers/media/dvb-frontends/s5h1420.c:193 s5h1420_send_master_cmd() error: buffer overflow 'cmd->msg' 6 <= 7
