Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: mesh: fix two small problems
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2009 11:39:26 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1247218766.1905.20.camel@johannes.local> (raw)
1) there's a spin_lock() that needs to be spin_lock_bh()
2) action frames of size 24 might cause an out-of-bounds
memory access (for the 25th byte only, so no big deal)
