Hi Simon,

I found that you may apply the patch from Suzuki with a wrong commit
description by mistake. So I send this revert patch and resend the
patch in another mail with a subject:
    "[PATCH RESEND] kexec/powerpc: Handle buffer overflow in kernel command line"

Could you please apply the two patches?

Thanks
Zhang
