Subject: backport a patch for Linux 3.18
Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2017 11:34:16 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1504064056.30912.21.camel@mtkswgap22> (raw)

Hi reviewers,

I suggest to backport a commit to Linux 3.18 stable tree.
Reason: KASAN reports a out-of-bound write issue when a large size
allocation is made from drivers through user-space.


commit: 67a2e213e7e937c41c52ab5bc46bf3f4de469f6e
subject: mm: cma: fix incorrect type conversion for size during dma
allocation
kernel version to apply to: Linux 3.18


thanks,
Miles
