Hi Mike,

Thanks for clarifying.

This patch tries to fix global out of bounds reported by syzbot.

1st patch i submitted, checked for DVB_MAX_PLL before adding the device in dvb_pll_attach(), Akihiro pointed that this would put a limit on number of devices that can be attached.

2nd patch, was to remove the module parameters, as per suggestion from Akihiro.

Should the module parameters use DEFINE_IDA and ida simple_get,ida_simple_remove, as suggested by Sean.

Can you please suggest on how to fix it.

Thanks,

Vandana.
