Hi!
> Function dispc_ovl_setup is not intended to work with the value OMAP_DSS_WB
> of the enum parameter plane.
>
> The value of this parameter is initialized in dss_init_overlays and in the
> current state of the code it cannot take this value so it's not a real
> problem.
>
> For the purposes of defensive coding it wouldn't be superfluous to check
> the parameter value, because some functions down the call stack process
> this value correctly and some not.
>
> For example, in dispc_ovl_setup_global_alpha it may lead to buffer
> overflow.
>
> Add check for this value.
>
> Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE static
> analysis tool.
As changelog explains, this is robustness, not really a bug fix. We
should not need it in -stable. (Or maybe rules file should be updated,
because noone seems to be following this rule).
Best regards,
