staging: unisys: fix random memory corruption in visorchannel_write()
visorchannel_write() and it's user visorbus_write_channel() are
exported, so all visorbus function drivers (i.e., drivers that call
visorbus_register_visor_driver()) are potentially affected by the bug.
Because of pointer-arithmetic rules, the address being written to in the
affected code was actually at byte offset:
sizeof(struct channel_header) * offset
instead of just <offset> bytes as intended.
The bug could cause some very difficult-to-diagnose symptoms. The
particular problem that led me on this chase was a kernel fault that
would occur during 'insmod visornic' after a previous 'rmmod visornic',
where we would fault during netdev_register_kobject() within
pm_runtime_set_memalloc_noio() while traversing a device list, which
occurred because dev->parent for the visorbus device had become
corrupted.
