Subject: [64/85] libceph: Fix NULL pointer dereference in auth client code

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

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

From: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@...onical.com>

commit 2cb33cac622afde897aa02d3dcd9fbba8bae839e upstream.

A malicious monitor can craft an auth reply message that could cause a
NULL function pointer dereference in the client's kernel.

To prevent this, the auth_none protocol handler needs an empty
ceph_auth_client_ops->build_request() function.

CVE-2013-1059
