+Subject: locks: fix checking of fcntl_setlease argument
+
+From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@fieldses.org>
+
+commit 0ec4f431eb56d633da3a55da67d5c4b88886ccc7 upstream.
+
+The only checks of the long argument passed to fcntl(fd,F_SETLEASE,.)
+are done after converting the long to an int. Thus some illegal values
+may be let through and cause problems in later code.
+
+[ They actually *don't* cause problems in mainline, as of Dave Jones's
+ commit 8d657eb3b438 "Remove easily user-triggerable BUG from
+ generic_setlease", but we should fix this anyway. And this patch will
+ be necessary to fix real bugs on earlier kernels. ]
