Subject: [PATCH] synclink fix ldisc buffer argument
Date: Mon, 03 Dec 2012 11:13:24 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <50BCDDB4.6010608@microgate.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <50B90D0D.9040401@microgate.com>

Fix call to line discipline receive_buf by synclink drivers.
Dummy flag buffer argument is ignored by N_HDLC line discipline but might
be of insufficient size if accessed by a different line discipline
selected by mistake. flag buffer allocation now matches max size of data
buffer. Unused char_buf buffers are removed.
