2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai commit 36be47d6d8d98f54b6c4f891e9f54fb2bf554584 upstream. The netmos_9xx5_combo type assumes that PCI SSID provides always the correct value for the number of parallel and serial ports, but there are indeed broken devices with wrong numbers, which may result in Oops. This patch simply adds the check of the array range.
