Brad Spengler pointed out this fix from 3.6 was missing from the earlier
stable branches:

commit 9c603e53d380459fb62fec7cd085acb0b74ac18f
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

    mtdchar: fix offset overflow detection

It looks cleanly cherry-pickable, although I haven't yet tested this.

Ben.
