[PATCH net] net: mctp: Consistent peer address handling in ioctl tag allocation
Posted by John Wang 1 year, 4 months ago
When executing ioctl to allocate tags, if the peer address is 0,
mctp_alloc_local_tag now replaces it with 0xff. However, during tag
dropping, this replacement is not performed, potentially causing the key
not to be dropped as expected.

Hi John,

This is not a full review, so I would recommend waiting for feedback
from others, but please:

1. Do not include the Change-Id as it is not obvious what public
   resource it references
2. As this is a fix targeted at net, please do include a Fixes tag,
   indicating the commit where this user-visible problem first
   manifested.

Also, as an aside, please wait 24h between posting updated patches.
