3.19.8-ckt10 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin at oracle.com>
commit 1266963170f576d4d08e6310b6963e26d3ff9d1e upstream.
63692df103e9 ("PCI: Allow numa_node override via sysfs") didn't check that
the numa node provided by userspace is valid. Passing a node number too
high would attempt to access invalid memory and trigger a kernel panic.
Fixes: 63692df103e9 ("PCI: Allow numa_node override via sysfs")
