Subject: [PATCH] Guard a divide in v4l1 compat layer
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2010 17:33:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101024163308.GA6612@gallifrey> (raw)

Hi,
  I managed to trigger a divide by 0 in the v4l compat code
with the mem2mem test module; I suspect perhaps it shouldn't
have been returning a 0 pixel wide picture, but either way it seems
right to guard this divide by 0 in the compatibility layer.

Tested on 2.6.36 (ubuntu build, but the code in this is the same as upstream), 
but ***not tested with a real video device***.

Signed-off-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert <linux@treblig.org>
