X-Git-Tag: v2.6.33-rc1~66^2 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2e16cfca6e17ae37ae21feca080a6f2eca9087dc;p=pandora-kernel.git jffs2: Fix long-standing bug with symlink garbage collection. Ever since jffs2_garbage_collect_metadata() was first half-written in February 2001, it's been broken on architectures where 'char' is signed. When garbage collecting a symlink with target length above 127, the payload length would end up negative, causing interesting and bad things to happen.
