6.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Pei Xiao commit 8b585431a16cfb9d8f2955a9fa0787ce3dceb3c2 upstream. When an invalid value is passed via the "eisa_irq_edge=" kernel command line parameter (e.g. "eisa_irq_edge=16,5"), eisa_irq_setup() prints an error message and continues without advancing the current position. As a result the same invalid value is parsed again and again, causing an infinite loop while the kernel boots. Advance to the next comma-separated entry, or stop parsing when there is no next entry, before continuing so that the remaining entries are processed normally.
