Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Fix off-by-one error in request_buffer check
Date: Mon,  6 Mar 2017 18:51:31 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1488837091-3835-1-git-send-email-bauerman@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

request_buffer can hold 254 requests, so if it already has that number of
entries we can't add a new one.

Also, define constant to show where the number comes from.

Fixes: e3ee15dc5d19 ("powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Define add_event_to_24x7_request()")
