Parav Pandit 89548bcafe IB/core: Avoid crash on pkey enforcement failed in received MADs
Below kernel crash is observed when Pkey security enforcement fails on
received MADs. This issue is reported in [1].

ib_free_recv_mad() accesses the rmpp_list, whose initialization is
needed before accessing it.
When security enformcent fails on received MADs, MAD processing avoided
due to security checks failed.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
