[PATCH 5/7][MAC80211]: Do not report false error from mesh_path_add.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In case the hash grow failed, it is not fair to return error -
the new node _was_ _actually_ added in this case.

Besides, after my previous patch, this grow is more likely
to fail on large hashes.
