Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (pmbus/ibm-cffps) Prevent writing on_off_config with bad data
Date: Tue,  7 Jan 2020 09:40:40 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1578411640-16929-1-git-send-email-eajames@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

If the user write parameters resulted in no bytes being written to the
temporary buffer, then ON_OFF_CONFIG will be written with uninitialized
data. Prevent this by bailing out in this case.
