[patch] nvme: lightnvm: buffer overflow in nvme_nvm_identity()

Show all headers | View raw

nvme_nvm_id->ppaf is 4 bytes larger than nvm_id->ppaf.  We're using the
larger size struct for the sizeof() so we end up corrupting the
first four bytes of nvm_id->groups[].  It doesn't look like we actually
want to copy those last bytes anyway.

Static analysis, not tested.  Please review this one carefully, I think
this bug would show up in testing.
