Hello,
I am new to submitting patches, so sorry if I am doing it wrong. My idea was
to change line 147 in drivers/isdn/pcbit/callbacks.c from
if (cbdata->data.setup.CallingPN == NULL) {
to
if (cbdata->data.setup.CallingPN == NULL ||
sizeof(cbdata->data.setup.CallingPN)>sizeof(ictl.parm.setup.phone) {

Before you do so, though: - Please read the available documentation, including SubmittingPatches and development-process/* - Prepare a proper changelog saying *why* you want to make this change. You are trying to change the ISDN subsystem, which is pretty static these days; what current problem are you running into that makes you think this change needs to be applied to the kernel?
