4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dan Williams dan.j.williams@intel.com
commit 26417ae4fc6108f8db436f24108b08f68bdc520e upstream.
For the same reason that /proc/iomem returns 0's for non-root readers and acpi tables are root-only, make the 'resource' attribute for pfn devices only readable by root. Otherwise we disclose physical address information.
Fixes: f6ed58c70d14 ("libnvdimm, pfn: 'resource'-address and 'size'...") Reported-by: Dave Hansen dave.hansen@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Dan Williams dan.j.williams@intel.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman gregkh@linuxfoundation.org
