From a6616bc9a0af7c65c0b0856a7508870a4a40c4ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takashi Iwai Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2021 14:24:48 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: dbg: Don't touch the tlv data The commit ba8f6f4ae254 ("iwlwifi: dbg: add dumping special device memory") added a termination of name string just to be sure, and this seems causing a regression, a GPF triggered at firmware loading. Basically we shouldn't modify the firmware data that may be provided as read-only. This patch drops the code that caused the regression and keep the tlv data as is.
