FromBen Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
Date2016-02-09 01:10 +0100
Subject[PATCH 3.2 34/87] power: test_power: correctly handle empty writes
Message-ID<r042t-4h1-9@gated-at.bofh.it>
3.2.77-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

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

commit 6b9140f39c2aaf76791197fbab0839c0e4af56e8 upstream.

Writing 0 length data into test_power makes it access an invalid array
location and kill the system.

Fixes: f17ef9b2d ("power: Make test_power driver more dynamic.")
