Subject: [PATCH 3.11 026/128] lz4: ensure length does not wrap

3.11.10.14 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

commit 206204a1162b995e2185275167b22468c00d6b36 upstream.

Given some pathologically compressed data, lz4 could possibly decide to
wrap a few internal variables, causing unknown things to happen.  Catch
this before the wrapping happens and abort the decompression.
