Re: [patch 077/232] sdio: fix read buffer overflow

[Jonathan Cameron <jic23@cam.ac.uk>]

Hi All,

This patch is causing a regression with libertas 8686.
It's only finding 3 strings which I'm guessing means
it is an invalid CISTPL_VERS_1. Unfortunately the libertas_sdio
code relies on a string in one of them to tell it what model of
card we have.

Can someone confirm what the CIS_VERS_1 spec actually is?
I've found one vague reference to entries 3 and 4 being optional
but the simplified sdio spec refers to the pcmcia 3.2.10 spec
which I don't have easy access to.

Any suggestions on a work around?

Thanks,

Jonathan
