Subject: [patch] mtd: sanity check input
Date: Wed, 08 Sep 2010 19:39:56 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100908193956.GB3463@bicker> (raw)
If "ur_idx" is wrong we could go past the end of the array. The
"ur_idx" comes from root so it's not a huge deal, but adding a sanity
check makes the code more robust.
