Subject: [PATCH v2 2/7] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Avoid double fetch of msgtype in vmbus_on_msg_dpc()
Date:   Wed,  2 Dec 2020 10:22:09 +0100
Message-Id: <20201202092214.13520-3-parri.andrea@gmail.com>

vmbus_on_msg_dpc() double fetches from msgtype.  The double fetch can
lead to an out-of-bound access when accessing the channel_message_table
array.  In turn, the use of the out-of-bound entry could lead to code
execution primitive (entry->message_handler()).  Avoid the double fetch
by saving the value of msgtype into a local variable.
