ext4: remove unnecessary check from alloc_flex_gd()
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.210 commit e7b9fa6c298fbe6d329ffdf0c98b91938e046946 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I9BV4P CVE: CVE-2023-52622 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=e7b9fa6c298fbe6d329ffdf0c98b91938e046946 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit b099eb87de105cf07cad731ded6fb40b2675108b ] In commit 967ac8af ("ext4: fix potential integer overflow in alloc_flex_gd()"), an overflow check is added to alloc_flex_gd() to prevent the allocated memory from being smaller than expected due to the overflow. However, after kmalloc() is replaced with kmalloc_array() in commit 6da2ec56 ("treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array()"), the kmalloc_array() function has an overflow check, so the above problem will not occur. Therefore, the extra check is removed. Signed-off-by:Baokun Li <libaokun1@huawei.com> Reviewed-by:
