The user can pass in any value to the driver through the 'ioctl'
interface. The driver dost not check, which may cause DoS bugs.

The following log reveals it:

Much better, thanks.
When a line is continued like here the statement shall aling with the
opening brace. I fixed it up when applying the patch to drm-misc-next so
no need to do anything this time.

Thanks for your kind reminder, I will pay attention next time.
