Javier Martinez Canillas fb282b4e8a drm: Use size_t type for len variable in drm_copy_field()
[ Upstream commit 94dc3471d1b2b58b3728558d0e3f264e9ce6ff59 ]

The strlen() function returns a size_t which is an unsigned int on 32-bit
arches and an unsigned long on 64-bit arches. But in the drm_copy_field()
function, the strlen() return value is assigned to an 'int len' variable.

Later, the len variable is passed as copy_from_user() third argument that
is an unsigned long parameter as well.

In theory, this can lead to an integer overflow via type conversion. Since
the assignment happens to a signed int lvalue instead of a size_t lvalue.

In practice though, that's unlikely since the values copied are set by DRM
drivers and not controlled by userspace. But using a size_t for len is the
correct thing to do anyways.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
