-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Jean Delvare The scx200_acb i2c bus driver pretends to support SMBus block transactions, but in fact it implements the more simple I2C block transactions. Additionally, it lacks sanity checks on the length of the block transactions, which could lead to a buffer overrun.
