Subject: [v2.6.34-stable 18/77] xfs: fix acl count validation in xfs_acl_from_disk()

From: Xi Wang <xi.wang@...il.com>

                   -------------------
    This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
    http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git
    If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
                   -------------------

commit 093019cf1b18dd31b2c3b77acce4e000e2cbc9ce upstream.

Commit fa8b18ed didn't prevent the integer overflow and possible
memory corruption.  "count" can go negative and bypass the check.

[PG: in 2.6.34, xfs still had "linux-2.6" as a path component.]
