[PATCH] cfg80211: Fix array-bounds warning in fragment copy

From: Matthias Kaehlcke <mka@chromium.org>
Date: 2017-03-25 01:08:09
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: 802.11 (including cfg80211/nl80211), the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

__ieee80211_amsdu_copy_frag intentionally initializes a pointer to
array[-1] to increment it later to valid values. clang rightfully
generates an array-bounds warning on the initialization statement.
Work around this by initializing the pointer to array[0] and
decrementing it later, which allows to leave the rest of the
algorithm untouched.
