Subject: flex_array: convert element_nr formals to unsigned
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b62e408c05228f40e69bb38a48db8961cac6cd23;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

flex_array: convert element_nr formals to unsigned

It's problematic to allow signed element_nr's or total's to be passed as
part of the flex array API.

flex_array_alloc() allows total_nr_elements to be set to a negative
quantity, which is obviously erroneous.

flex_array_get() and flex_array_put() allows negative array indices in
dereferencing an array part, which could address memory mapped before
struct flex_array.

The fix is to convert all existing element_nr formals to be qualified as
unsigned.  Existing checks to compare it to total_nr_elements or the max
array size based on element_size need not be changed.
