Subject: fib_trie: remove potential out of bound access
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=aab515d7c32a34300312416c50314e755ea6f765;p=linux-beck.git

fib_trie: remove potential out of bound access

AddressSanitizer [1] dynamic checker pointed a potential
out of bound access in leaf_walk_rcu()

We could allocate one more slot in tnode_new() to leave the prefetch()
in-place but it looks not worth the pain.

Bug added in commit 82cfbb008572b ("[IPV4] fib_trie: iterator recode")
