Subject: [PATCH 3.2 058/152] decompress_bunzip2: off by one in
 get_next_block()

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

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit b5c8afe5be51078a979d86ae5ae78c4ac948063d upstream.

"origPtr" is used as an offset into the bd->dbuf[] array.  That array is
allocated in start_bunzip() and has "bd->dbufSize" number of elements so
the test here should be >= instead of >.

Later we check "origPtr" again before using it as an offset so I don't
know if this bug can be triggered in real life.

Fixes: bc22c17e12c1 ('bzip2/lzma: library support for gzip, bzip2 and lzma decompression')
