[PATCH v4 7/9] rocker: fix rocker_tlv_put_* functions for KASAN

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Fri Sep 22 2017 - 17:32:52 EST


Inlining these functions creates lots of stack variables that each take
64 bytes when KASAN is enabled, leading to this warning about potential
stack overflow:

drivers/net/ethernet/rocker/rocker_ofdpa.c: In function 'ofdpa_cmd_flow_tbl_add':
drivers/net/ethernet/rocker/rocker_ofdpa.c:621:1: error: the frame size of 2752 bytes is larger than 1536 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

gcc-8 can now consolidate the stack slots itself, but on older versions
we get the same behavior by using a temporary variable that holds a
copy of the inline function argument.
