If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Vasant Hegde commit 8832317f662c06f5c06e638f57bfe89a71c9b266 upstream. Currently we do not validate rtas.entry before calling enter_rtas(). This leads to a kernel oops when user space calls rtas system call on a powernv platform (see below). This patch adds code to validate rtas.entry before making enter_rtas() call.
