Subject: [PATCH 3.2 082/185] iscsi-target: fix extract_param to handle
 buffer length corner case

3.2.54-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Eric Seppanen <eric@...estorage.com>

commit 369653e4fb511928511b0ce81f41c812ff1f28b6 upstream.

extract_param() is called with max_length set to the total size of the
output buffer.  It's not safe to allow a parameter length equal to the
buffer size as the terminating null would be written one byte past the
end of the output buffer.
