[PATCH 5.4 38/68] thermal/core: Potential buffer overflow in thermal_build_list_of_policies()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 1bb30b20b49773369c299d4d6c65227201328663 ]

After printing the list of thermal governors, then this function prints
a newline character.  The problem is that "size" has not been updated
after printing the last governor.  This means that it can write one
character (the NUL terminator) beyond the end of the buffer.

Get rid of the "size" variable and just use "PAGE_SIZE - count" directly.

Fixes: 1b4f48494eb2 ("thermal: core: group functions related to governor handling")
