The access that triggers this is the inet_rsk(rsk)->inet6_rsk_offset dereference in inet6_rsk(). This is arguably not a critical error as the inet6_rsk_offset is only used to compute a pointer which is never really used (in the code path in question) anyway. But it might be a latent error, so let's fix it. Spotted by kmemcheck. Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S.
