Commit 9fb582b6 authored by Michael S. Tsirkin's avatar Michael S. Tsirkin Committed by David S. Miller

Revert "net: ptr_ring: otherwise safe empty checks can overrun array bounds"

This reverts commit bcecb4bb.

If we try to allocate an extra entry as the above commit did, and when
the requested size is UINT_MAX, addition overflows causing zero size to
be passed to kmalloc().

kmalloc then returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR with a subsequent crash.
