[net PATCH] wireguard: allowedips: fix compilation warning for stack limit exceeded

From: Christian Marangi
Date: Fri May 26 2023 - 16:42:07 EST


On some arch (for example IPQ8074) and other with
KERNEL_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG enabled, the following compilation error is
triggered:
drivers/net/wireguard/allowedips.c: In function 'root_remove_peer_lists':
drivers/net/wireguard/allowedips.c:80:1: error: the frame size of 1040 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
80 | }
| ^
drivers/net/wireguard/allowedips.c: In function 'root_free_rcu':
drivers/net/wireguard/allowedips.c:67:1: error: the frame size of 1040 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
67 | }
| ^
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Since these are free function and returns void, using function that can
fail is not ideal since an error would result in data not freed.
Since the free are under RCU lock, we can allocate the required stack
array as static outside the function and memset when needed.
This effectively fix the stack frame warning without changing how the
function work.
