4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit fc42a689c4c097859e5bd37b5ea11b60dc426df6 ] The test_insert_dup() function from lib/test_rhashtable.c passes a pointer to a stack object to rhltable_init(). Allocate the hash table dynamically to avoid that the following is reported with object debugging enabled: ODEBUG: object (ptrval) is on stack (ptrval), but NOT annotated.
