Subject: [PATCH] arm: fix incorrect bounds check
Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2016 07:40:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <56988668.1040803@nextfour.com> (raw)

Recent changes (4.4.0+) in module loader triggered oops on ARM. While
investigating it found incorrect bounds check. This was not the cause of
the oops but incorrect anyway.
