[PATCH v2] spi: spidev_test: Fix buffer overflow in unescape()

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

Sometimes spidev_test crashes with:

    *** Error in `spidev_test': munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer: 0x00022020 ***
    Aborted

or just

    Segmentation fault

This is due to transfer_escaped_string() miscalculating the required
size of the buffer by one byte, causing a buffer overflow in unescape().

Drop the bogus "+ 1" in the strlen() parameter to fix this.

Note that unescape() never copies the zero-terminator of the source
string, so it writes at most as many bytes as the length of the source
string.

v2:
  - As unescape() doesn't copy the zero-terminator, it's an off-by-one
    not off-by-two bug, and the "+ 1" should just be dropped.

The bug is present in all kernel sources since v4.1, but in v4.5 the
code was changed, and the source file was moved.

The fix for older kernels is straight-forward, there's only a single
strlen() call in Documentation/spi/spidev_test.c:

	-	size = strlen(input_tx+1);
	+	size = strlen(input_tx);

If you want, I can send a patch against v4.4 (for v4.1..v4.4) later.
