2.6.35-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Timo Warns <wa...@pre-sense.de>
commit c340b1d640001c8c9ecff74f68fd90422ae2448a upstream.
The kernel automatically evaluates partition tables of storage devices.
The code for evaluating LDM partitions (in fs/partitions/ldm.c) contains
a bug that causes a kernel oops on certain corrupted LDM partitions.
A kernel subsystem seems to crash, because, after the oops, the kernel no
longer recognizes newly connected storage devices.
The patch validates the value of vblk_size.
