Merge tag 'firewire-fix' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394
Pull firewire fix from Stefan Richter:
"IEEE 1394 (FireWire) subsystem fix: The character device file
interface for raw 1394 I/O took uninitialized kernel stack as
substitute for missing ioctl() argument data. This could partially
show up in subsequent read() output"
* tag 'firewire-fix' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394:
firewire: cdev: prevent kernel stack leaking into ioctl arguments
