From 92d34134193e5b129dc24f8d79cb9196626e8d7a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shankara Pailoor Date: Tue, 5 Jun 2018 08:33:27 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] jfs: Fix inconsistency between memory allocation and ea_buf->max_size The code is assuming the buffer is max_size length, but we weren't allocating enough space for it.
