This patch verifies two conditions before executing
a kmalloc call. First, it checks to see that
IoBuffer.OutputLength is not greater than an
unsigned short. If so, an invalid value may be
returned. The second change is a check to make
sure IoBuffer.OutputLength is not equal to
zero. Which simply k

You should seriously consider giving your patch mails unique subjects.
Many patches with identical subjects are prone to be missed by people on
the list and it's also harder to refer to a specific patch later.

The storage driver (storvsc_drv.c) handles all block storage devices
assigned to Linux guests hosted on Hyper-V. This driver has been in the
staging tree for a while and this patch moves it out of the staging area.
As per Greg's recommendation, this patch makes no changes to the staging/hv

We intend to use the storage driver to manage the root device.
To avoid deadlocks, use mempools to allocate struct storvsc_cmd_request.

This patch implements a driver for the GE PIO2 VME Parallel I/O Card. This
card is a 6U VME Card, implementing 32 solid-state relay switched IO lines,
in 4 groups of 8. Each bank of IO lines is built to function as input,
output or both depending on the variant of the card.
