** Description changed:

- IB/security: Restrict use of the write() interface
+ The InfiniBand (aka IB) stack in the Linux kernel before 4.5.3
+ incorrectly relies on the write system call, which allows local users to
+ cause a denial of service (kernel memory write operation) or possibly
+ have unspecified other impact via a uAPI interface.
  
  Break-Fix: - e6bd18f57aad1a2d1ef40e646d03ed0f2515c9e3
