Subject: fuse: check size of FUSE_NOTIFY_INVAL_ENTRY message
From: Miklos Szeredi <mszer...@suse.cz>
commit c2183d1e9b3f313dd8ba2b1b0197c8d9fb86a7ae upstream.
FUSE_NOTIFY_INVAL_ENTRY didn't check the length of the write so the
message processing could overrun and result in a "kernel BUG at
fs/fuse/dev.c:629!"
