From d294f1e78ca3b7f546b8ddd7cfd90a0bf63b317b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eliav Farber Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2022 10:06:19 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] EDAC: Fix calculation of returned address and next offset in edac_align_ptr() Do alignment logic properly and use the "ptr" local variable for calculating the remainder of the alignment. This became an issue because struct edac_mc_layer has a size that is not zero modulo eight, and the next offset that was prepared for the private data was unaligned, causing an alignment exception. The patch in Fixes: which broke this actually wanted to "what we actually care about is the alignment of the actual pointer that's about to be returned." But it didn't check that alignment. Use the correct variable "ptr" for that.
