[PATCH 3.12 81/82] EDAC: Poll timeout cannot be zero, p2

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Feb 20 2014 - 19:24:52 EST


3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

commit 9da21b1509d8aa7ab4846722817d16c72d656c91 upstream.

Sanitize code even more to accept unsigned longs only and to not allow
polling intervals below 1 second as this is unnecessary and doesn't make
much sense anyway for polling errors.
