This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled of: Fix missing memory initialization on FDT unflattening to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.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-3.5.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 3.5.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From e921631f67170b51d7d87983c902cc84e29b3843 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Grant Likely <grant.likely@linaro.org> Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2013 21:24:17 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] of: Fix missing memory initialization on FDT unflattening commit 0640332e073be9207f0784df43595c0c39716e42 upstream. Any calls to dt_alloc() need to be zeroed. This is a temporary fix, but the allocation function itself needs to zero memory before returning it. This is a follow up to patch 9e4012752, "of: fdt: fix memory initialization for expanded DT" which fixed one call site but missed another.
