Subject: [PATCH 4.9 65/77] x86/spectre: Fix an error message
Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2018 12:49:14 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180221124434.946852327@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180221124432.172390020@linuxfoundation.org>

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

commit 9de29eac8d2189424d81c0d840cd0469aa3d41c8 upstream.

If i = ARRAY_SIZE(mitigation_options) then we accidentally print
garbage from one space beyond the end of the mitigation_options[] array.
