Subject: xen-netback: avoid allocating variable size array on stack
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=59ccb4ebbc35e36a3c143f2d1355deb75c2e628f;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

xen-netback: avoid allocating variable size array on stack

Tune xen_netbk_count_requests to not touch working array beyond limit, so that
we can make working array size constant.
