3.16.63-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: "H. Peter Anvin" <[email protected]> commit 991a25194097006ec1e0d2e0814ff920e59e3465 upstream. 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.
