From 177f55e48f91842a6e33e896d64ebb9a44db298b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Dan Rosenberg <drosenberg@vsecurity.com>
Date: Sun, 26 Dec 2010 06:54:53 +0000
Subject: [PATCH 38/65] CAN: Use inode instead of kernel address for /proc file
Since the socket address is just being used as a unique identifier, its
inode number is an alternative that does not leak potentially sensitive
information.
CC-ing stable because MITRE has assigned CVE-2010-4565 to the issue.
