[PATCH 4.4 25/51] btrfs: tree-check: reduce stack consumption in check_dir_item

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jan 15 2019 - 12:01:39 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx>

commit e2683fc9d219430f5b78889b50cde7f40efeba7b upstream.

I've noticed that the updated item checker stack consumption increased
dramatically in 542f5385e20cf97447 ("btrfs: tree-checker: Add checker
for dir item")

tree-checker.c:check_leaf +552 (176 -> 728)

The array is 255 bytes long, dynamic allocation would slow down the
sanity checks so it's more reasonable to keep it on-stack. Moving the
variable to the scope of use reduces the stack usage again

tree-checker.c:check_leaf -264 (728 -> 464)
