Subject: [PATCH] IPMI: fix comparison in demangle_device_id
Date: Sun, 21 Oct 2007 23:10:57 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071022041057.GA11676@minyard.local> (raw)

From: Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com>

Coverity spotted some incorrect code in a recent change to the IPMI
driver; this patch make sure the data is really long enough to pull
the manufacturer id and product id out of a get device id message.
