[PATCH] add check to /proc/devices read routines

Browse Source 
Patch to add check to get_chrdev_list and get_blkdev_list to prevent reads
of /proc/devices from spilling over the provided page if more than 4096
bytes of string data are generated from all the registered character and
block devices in a system
