[PATCH 5.4 390/453] um: Remove use of asprinf in umid.c
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Dec 28 2020 - 08:56:32 EST
From: Anton Ivanov <anton.ivanov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 97be7ceaf7fea68104824b6aa874cff235333ac1 upstream.
asprintf is not compatible with the existing uml memory allocation
mechanism. Its use on the "user" side of UML results in a corrupt slab
state.
Fixes: 0d4e5ac7e780 ("um: remove uses of variable length arrays")
