Subject: serial_core:recognize invalid pointer from userspace
Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2016 16:02:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457510549-24801-2-git-send-email-lu.jiang@windriver.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1457510549-24801-1-git-send-email-lu.jiang@windriver.com>

compat_ioctl use 0xffffffff as a magic number to mark invalid pointer
for iomem_base in serial_struct when truncating a 64bit pointer into
32bit.

Serial driver need recognize this invalid pointer when parsing
serial_struct from userspace.
