patch "binder: fix incorrect calculation for num_valid" added to char-misc-linus

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

binder: fix incorrect calculation for num_valid

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: binder: fix incorrect calculation for num_valid

For BINDER_TYPE_PTR and BINDER_TYPE_FDA transactions, the num_valid local was calculated incorrectly causing the range check in binder_validate_ptr() to miss out-of-bounds offsets.
