Subject: [PATCH] Format string bug in drivers/of/of_i2c.c
Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2008 08:13:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081020121315.10428.10730.stgit@terra> (raw)

Format string bug.  Not exploitable, as this is only writable by root,
but worth fixing all the same.

See 326f6a5c9c9e1a62aec37bdc0c3f8d53adabe77b
