From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: lib/test_kmod.c: fix limit check on number of test devices created As reported by Dan the parentheses is in the wrong place, and since unlikely() call returns either 0 or 1 it's never less than zero. The second issue is that signed integer overflows like "INT_MAX + 1" are undefined behavior. Since num_test_devs represents the number of devices, we want to stop prior to hitting the max, and not rely on the wrap arround at all. So just cap at num_test_devs + 1, prior to assigning a new device.
