irda: buffer overflow in irnet_ctrl_read()
The comments here say that the /* Max event is 61 char */ but in 2003 we changed the event format and now the max event size is 75. The longest event is: "Discovered %08x (%s) behind %08x {hints %02X-%02X}\n", 12345678901 23 456789012 34567890 1 2 3 +8 +21 +8 +2 +2 +1 = 75 characters. There was a check to return -EOVERFLOW if the user gave us a "count" value that was less than 64. Raising it to 75 might break backwards compatability. Instead I removed the check and now it returns a truncated string if "count" is too low. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
