Hi Linus, Hi Andrew, please do a
bk pull bk://linux-ntfs.bkbits.net/ntfs-2.6
This fixes a potential DoS attack in NTFS by rate limiting printk() when the
driver is not compiled with debugging enabled. Thanks to Carl-Daniel
Heilfinger from SuSE for pointing this out.
Please apply. Thanks!
For the benefit of non-BK users and to make code review easier, I am
sending each ChangeSet in a separate email as a diff -u style patch.
Best regards,
Anton
