ACPI: video_device_list corruption
The ->cap fields of struct acpi_video_device and struct acpi_video_bus are 1B each, not 4B. The oversized memset()'s corrupted the subsequent list_head fields. This resulted in silent corruption without CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST and BUG's with it. This patch uses sizeof() to pass the proper bounds to the memset() calls and thereby correct the bugs. upstream commit 98934def70b48dac74fac3738b78ab2d1a28edda Signed-off-by: William Irwin <wli@holomorphy.com> Acked-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
