From 05f7f08e034706df30329daf7a53b4da7ee614f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samuel Thibault Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2020 01:30:47 +0100 Subject: staging/speakup: fix get_word non-space look-ahead commit 9d32c0cde4e2d1343dfb88a67b2ec6397705b32b upstream. get_char was erroneously given the address of the pointer to the text instead of the address of the text, thus leading to random crashes when the user requests speaking a word while the current position is on a space character and say_word_ctl is not enabled.
