Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nubus: Partially revert proc_create_single_data() conversion
The conversion to proc_create_single_data() introduced a regression
whereby reading a file in /proc/bus/nubus results in a seg fault:
# grep -r . /proc/bus/nubus/e/
Data read fault at 0x00000020 in Super Data (pc=0x1074c2)
BAD KERNEL BUSERR

Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
Segmentation fault
The proc_create_single_data() conversion does not work because
single_open(file, nubus_proc_rsrc_show, PDE_DATA(inode)) is not
equivalent to the original code.
