This is a completely different CONFIG_HOTPLUG problem, only
demonstrating another reason why CONFIG_HOTPLUG should go away.  I had a
hard time trying to disable it anyway ;-)

The problem this time is lots of code assuming that a call to
add_uevent_var() will guarantee that env->buflen > 0.  This is not true
if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is unset.  So things like this end up overwriting
env->envp_idx because the array index is -1:

	if (add_uevent_var(env, "MODALIAS="))
		return -ENOMEM;
        len = input_print_modalias(&env->buf[env->buflen - 1],
				   sizeof(env->buf) - env->buflen,
				   dev, 0);

Don't know what the best action is, given that there seem to be a *lot*
of this around the kernel.  This patch "fixes" the problem for me, but I
don't know if it can be considered an appropriate fix.

[ It is the correct fix for now, for 3.7 forcing CONFIG_HOTPLUG to
always be on is the longterm fix, but it's too late for 3.6 and older
kernels to resolve this that way - gregkh ]
