ntp: Fix ADJ_SETOFFSET being used w/ ADJ_NANO
[ Upstream commit dd4e17ab704269bce71402285f5e8b9ac24b1eff ] Recently, in commit 37cf4dc3370f I forgot to check if the timeval being passed was actually a timespec (as is signaled with ADJ_NANO). This resulted in that patch breaking ADJ_SETOFFSET users who set ADJ_NANO, by rejecting valid timespecs that were compared with valid timeval ranges. This patch addresses this by checking for the ADJ_NANO flag and using the timepsec check instead in that case. Reported-by: Harald Hoyer <harald@redhat.com> Reported-by: Kay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Fixes: 37cf4dc3370f "time: Verify time values in adjtimex ADJ_SETOFFSET to avoid overflow" Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org> Cc: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> Cc: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com> Cc: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Cc: David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1453417415-19110-2-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@verizon.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
