Subject[PATCH 4.2 080/110] PCI: Prevent out of bounds access in numa_node override
Message-ID<qrVXI-V4-13@gated-at.bofh.it>
4.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com>

commit 1266963170f576d4d08e6310b6963e26d3ff9d1e upstream.

63692df103e9 ("PCI: Allow numa_node override via sysfs") didn't check that
the numa node provided by userspace is valid.  Passing a node number too
high would attempt to access invalid memory and trigger a kernel panic.

Fixes: 63692df103e9 ("PCI: Allow numa_node override via sysfs")
