rps: fix insufficient bounds checking in store_rps_dev_flow_table_cnt()
Setting a large rps_flow_cnt like (1 << 30) on 32-bit platform will cause a kernel oops due to insufficient bounds checking. if (count > 1<<30) { /* Enforce a limit to prevent overflow */ return -EINVAL; } count = roundup_pow_of_two(count); table = vmalloc(RPS_DEV_FLOW_TABLE_SIZE(count)); Note that the macro RPS_DEV_FLOW_TABLE_SIZE(count) is defined as: ... + (count * sizeof(struct rps_dev_flow)) where sizeof(struct rps_dev_flow) is 8. (1 << 30) * 8 will overflow 32 bits. This patch replaces the magic number (1 << 30) with a symbolic bound.
