Subject: [PATCH 4.9 131/206] relay: check array offset before using it

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit 9a29d0fbc2d9ad99fb8a981ab72548cc360e9d4c upstream.

Smatch complains that we started using the array offset before we
checked that it was valid.

Fixes: 017c59c042d0 ('relay: Use per CPU constructs for the relay channel buffer pointers')
