3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: H. Peter Anvin hpa@zytor.com
commit 991a25194097006ec1e0d2e0814ff920e59e3465 upstream.
On architectures with CBAUDEX == 0 (Alpha and PowerPC), the code in tty_baudrate.c does not do any limit checking on the tty_baudrate[] array, and in fact a buffer overrun is possible on both architectures. Add a limit check to prevent that situation.
This will be followed by a much bigger cleanup/simplification patch.
