This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled EDAC: Poll timeout cannot be zero, p2 to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.11.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 11cf3417106530688dbee256cde2f56d56fbb390 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Date: Mon, 3 Feb 2014 15:05:13 -0500 Subject: EDAC: Poll timeout cannot be zero, p2 commit 9da21b1509d8aa7ab4846722817d16c72d656c91 upstream. Sanitize code even more to accept unsigned longs only and to not allow polling intervals below 1 second as this is unnecessary and doesn't make much sense anyway for polling errors.
