commit de916736aaaadddbd6061472969f667b14204aa9 upstream.

val is indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to a
potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

This issue was detected with the help of Smatch:

drivers/misc/hmc6352.c:54 compass_store() warn: potential spectre issue
'map' [r]

Fix this by sanitizing val before using it to index map

Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is
to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
completed with a dependent load/store [1].

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include &lt;linux/init.h&gt;.  Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.

The usage of strict_strtoul() is not preferred, because
strict_strtoul() is obsolete. Thus, kstrtoul() should be
used.

<content type='text'>
This patch converts the drivers in drivers/misc/* to use the
module_i2c_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit
simpler.

i2c_master_recv() returns negative errno, or else the number of bytes
read.  Thus i2c_master_recv(client, i2c_data, 2) returns 2 instead of 1 in
success case.

This driver will report the heading values in degrees to the sysfs
interface.  The values returned are headings .  e.g.  245.6

Alan: Cleanups requested now all folded in and a sysfs description to keep
Andrew happy. The sysfs description now resembles hwmon.
