Ok. here is a fix with the overflow check sg.c has. Patch was made against Linus's tree and tested with nero. Userspace does not send us jiffies. Use msecs_to_jiffies and check for overflow like sg.c Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <redacted>
Thanks. Fixed the ',' that Andrew pointed out, committed and pushed out. What a stupid bug. And I even _looked_ at that patch, since there weren't that many that changed anything in this area, and it looked just subtly right enough that no warning bells ever went off. Thanks to everybody, but especially Mike for showing us the errors of our ways. Linus
