From c2351249f140aebdf911d86d7a1542c40b20fca3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Eremin Date: Sat, 28 Jan 2017 19:05:01 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] staging: lustre: libcfs: avoid stomping on module param cpu_pattern The function cfs_cpt_table_create_pattern() alters the string passed to it. Currently we are passing in the module parameter string cpu_pattern which is incorrect. Instead lets duplicate the module parameter string and pass that to the function cfs_cpt_table_create_pattern().
