Subject: [PATCH 4.9 10/84] ptr_ring: use kmalloc_array()

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

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

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>


[ Upstream commit 81fbfe8adaf38d4f5a98c19bebfd41c5d6acaee8 ]

As found by syzkaller, malicious users can set whatever tx_queue_len
on a tun device and eventually crash the kernel.

Lets remove the ALIGN(XXX, SMP_CACHE_BYTES) thing since a small
ring buffer is not fast anyway.

Fixes: 2e0ab8ca83c1 ("ptr_ring: array based FIFO for pointers")
