[PATCH] ndisc: Fix padding error in link-layer address option.
From: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <hidden>

If a natural number n exists where 2 + data_len <= 8n < 2 + data_len + pad, post padding is not initialized correctly. (Un)fortunately, the only type that requires pad is Infiniband, whose pad is 2 and data_len is 20, and this logical error has not become obvious, but it is better to fix. Note that ndisc_opt_addr_space() handles the situation described above correctly. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <redacted> --- net/ipv6/ndisc.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
