From: Theodore Ts'o tytso@mit.edu Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2018 20:00:56 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: add bounds checking to ext4_xattr_find_entry()
Add some paranoia checks to make sure we don't stray beyond the end of the valid memory region containing ext4 xattr entries while we are scanning for a match.
Also rename the function to xattr_find_entry() since it is static and thus only used in fs/ext4/xattr.c
