[PATCH v2] CVE-2011-2517

[Paolo Pisati]

CVE-2011-2517:
	Buffer overflow flaws in the Linux kernel's netlink-based wireless
	configuration interface implementation could allow a local user,
	who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability, to cause a denial of service
	or escalate their privileges on systems that have an active wireless
	interface.

The cve advisory mentions two commits (208c72f4fe44fe09577e7975ba0e7fa0278f3d03
and 57a27e1d6a3bb9ad4efeebd3a8c71156d6207536) but the second one supersedes the
first one, so i picked and adapted that.

Following this email are 3 patches for lucid/master, lucid/fsl-imx51 and
another one for maverick/[master|ti-omap4], natty/[master|ti-omap4].
Lucid/[ec2|mvl-dove] and maverick/mvl-dove will get it after the next rebase.
