[PATCH] for 2.2.x i386 Linux kernel DoS - Affects 2.2.x andprobably 2.0.x

exploit on 2.2.x, and the machine locked completely I have not check 2.0.x, but given the staleness of this code segment, it may also be affected. The fix appears to be to adapt the 2.4.x patch to 2.2.x, which looks fairly easy to do. Best Regards, Matthew Grant PS: I am a debian developer
