Subject: ixp4xx: Don't overwrite memory in wg302v1_fixup()
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=83381c5c8fabe913f3a6966a7acacd44c429f6e8;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2F981213.git

ixp4xx: Don't overwrite memory in wg302v1_fixup()

wg302v1_fixup() looks for the ATAG_CMDLINE atag, it doesn't find it and
so it takes the last atag in the list and overwrites non allocated
memory.

The side effects are corrupted vital data and a kernel that doesn't
boot. More details here https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/18356

The fix appends the fixup to the command line and updates the atag only
when it finds it.
