commit ce10d7b4e8e3574b9616e54a09d64521b9aeb8b6 upstream. The x and y hints receives from the host are unsigned 32 bit integers and they get set to -1 (0xffffffff) when invalid. Before this commit the vboxvideo driver was storing them in an u16 causing the -1 to be truncated to 65535 which, once reported to userspace, was breaking gnome 3.26+ in Wayland mode. This commit stores the host values in 32 bit variables, removing the truncation and checks for -1, replacing it with 0 as -1 is not a valid suggested-offset-property value. Likewise the properties are now initialized to 0 instead of -1, since -1 is not a valid value. This fixes gnome 3.26+ in Wayland mode not working with the vboxvideo driver.

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.
