From f2ba2d9421744eb31e4001f448ad02593dd82883 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jacob Garber Date: Tue, 2 Jul 2019 10:50:10 -0600 Subject: arch/x86: Use ssize_t to store length size_t is the wrong type to store the return value of acpi_device_path_fill(), since any negative error values will be converted to a very large unsigned integer and potentially cause buffer overflow.
