Hello,
I am new to submitting patches, so sorry if I am doing it wrong. My idea was
to change line 147 in drivers/isdn/pcbit/callbacks.c from
if (cbdata->data.setup.CallingPN == NULL) {
to
if (cbdata->data.setup.CallingPN == NULL ||
sizeof(cbdata->data.setup.CallingPN)>sizeof(ictl.parm.setup.phone) {

If you want to patch the kernel, the best way to describe what you want to
do is to ... send a patch.
Before you do so, though:
- Please read the available documentation, including SubmittingPatches and
development-process/*
- Prepare a proper changelog saying *why* you want to make this change.
You are trying to change the ISDN subsystem, which is pretty static
these days; what current problem are you running into that makes you
think this change needs to be applied to the kernel?
Thanks,
jon
