Subject: [PATCH 0/2] bsg-lib: backports for 'fix kernel panic resulting from missing allocation of reply-buffer'
Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2017 18:28:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1505739104.git.bblock@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Hello stable,

Here are two backports of:
commit 50b4d485528d1dbe0bd249f2073140e3444f4a7b upstream

Patch 1 is for kernel 4.11 and Patch 2 for 4.12. Each version had its
own chnages so that no single backport is applicable for both versions.
Details in the patches themselfs.

I rebased them on Gerg's linux-4.11.y and respectively linux-4.12.y.
