+Subject: net: rds: use correct size for max unacked packets and bytes
+
+commit db27ebb111e9f69efece08e4cb6a34ff980f8896 upstream.
+
+Max unacked packets/bytes is an int while sizeof(long) was used in the
+sysctl table.
+
+This means that when they were getting read we'd also leak kernel memory
+to userspace along with the timeout values.
+
+Fixes CVE-2015-2041.
