Subject: reiserfs: prepare_error_buf wrongly consumes va_arg
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cacbe3d7ad3c0a345ca1ce7bf1ecb4c5bfe54d7b;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

reiserfs: prepare_error_buf wrongly consumes va_arg

vsprintf will consume varargs on its own. Skipping them manually
results in garbage in the error buffer, or Oopses in the case of
pointers.

This patch removes the advancement and fixes a number of bugs where
crashes were observed as side effects of a regular error report.
