Subject: [PATCH 4.1 48/65] kaiser: fix unlikely error in alloc_ldt_struct()
Date:   Mon,  5 Mar 2018 19:25:21 -0500

From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com>

An error from kaiser_add_mapping() here is not at all likely, but
Eric Biggers rightly points out that __free_ldt_struct() relies on
new_ldt->size being initialized: move that up.
