Subject: [patch] irqchip/irq-crossbar: not allocating enough memory
Date: Thu, 03 Apr 2014 07:21:34 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140403072134.GA14286@mwanda> (raw)

We are allocating the size of a pointer and not the size of the data.
This will lead to memory corruption.

There isn't actually a "cb_device" struct, btw.  The code is only able
to compile because GCC knows that all pointers are the same size.

Fixes: 96ca848ef7ea ('DRIVERS: IRQCHIP: CROSSBAR: Add support for Crossbar IP')
