Subject: [PATCH] fs/nfs: Fix nfs_parse_devname to not modify it's argument
Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2019 07:58:38 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fttap7qp.fsf@xmission.com> (raw)
In the rare and unsupported case of a hostname list nfs_parse_devname
will modify dev_name. There is no need to modify dev_name as the all
that is being computed is the length of the hostname, so the computed
length can just be shorted.
Fixes: dc04589827f7 ("NFS: Use common device name parsing logic for NFSv4 and NFSv2/v3")
