* miscdevice: Add helper macro for misc device boilerplatePrasannaKumar Muralidharan2016-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many modules call misc_register and misc_deregister in its module init and exit methods without any additional code. This ends up being boilerplate. This patch adds helper macro module_misc_device(), that replaces module_init()/ module_exit() with template functions. This patch also converts drivers to use new macro. Change since v1: Add device.h include in miscdevice.h as module_driver macro was not available from other include files in some architectures.

* s390/sclp_ctl: fix potential information leak with /dev/sclpMartin Schwidefsky2016-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The sclp_ctl_ioctl_sccb function uses two copy_from_user calls to retrieve the sclp request from user space. The first copy_from_user fetches the length of the request which is stored in the first two bytes of the request. The second copy_from_user gets the complete sclp request, but this copies the length field a second time. A malicious user may have changed the length in the meantime.
