[PATCH 2/2] iio: fix possible buffer overflow

From: Alexandre Belloni
Date: Fri May 02 2014 - 18:41:12 EST


Found using smatch:
drivers/iio/industrialio-event.c:327 iio_device_add_event() error: buffer
overflow 'iio_ev_info_text' 3 <= 7

It was probably never hit because the mask_* members of the event_spec struct
are filled by using the BIT() macro with values from the iio_event_info enum
that also serve as the index of the iio_ev_info_text array.

Also, for_each_set_bit takes a number of bits as the size, not a number of
bytes.
