commit 7127d24372bf23675a36edc64d092dc7fd92ebe8 upstream.
init_r_port can access pc104 array out of bounds. pc104 is a 2D array
defined to have 4 members. Each member has 8 submembers.
* we can have more than 4 (PCI) boards, i.e. [board] can be OOB
* line is not modulo-ed by anything, so the first line on the second
board can be 4, on the 3rd 12 or alike (depending on previously
registered boards). It's zero only on the first line of the first
board. So even [line] can be OOB, quite soon (with the 2nd registered
board already).
This code is broken for ages, so just avoid the OOB accesses and don't
try to fix it as we would need to find out the correct line number. Use
the default: RS232, if we are out.
Generally, if anyone needs to set the interface types, a module parameter
is past the last thing that should be used for this purpose. The
parameters' description says it's for ISA cards anyway.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
