This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled iio: accel: sca3000: memory corruption in sca3000_read_first_n_hw_rb() to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11-ckt30.

"num_read" is in byte units but we are write u16s so we end up write twice as much as intended.
