From: "H. Peter Anvin" <[email protected]> On architectures with CBAUDEX == 0 (Alpha and PowerPC), the code in tty_baudrate.c does not do any limit checking on the tty_baudrate[] array, and in fact a buffer overrun is possible on both architectures. Add a limit check to prevent that situation.
This will be followed by a much bigger cleanup/simplification patch. Signed-off-by: H.
