ipvs: Fix clamp() of ip_vs_conn_tab on small memory systems
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit cf2c974 ]

The 'max_avail' value is calculated from the system memory
size using order_base_2().
order_base_2(x) is defined as '(x) ? fn(x) : 0'.
The compiler generates two copies of the code that follows
and then expands clamp(max, min, PAGE_SHIFT - 12) (11 on 32bit).
This triggers a compile-time assert since min is 5.

In reality a system would have to have less than 512MB memory
for the bounds passed to clamp to be reversed.

Swap the order of the arguments to clamp() to avoid the warning.

Replace the clamp_val() on the line below with clamp().
clamp_val() is just 'an accident waiting to happen' and not needed here.

Detected by compile time checks added to clamp(), specifically:
minmax.h: use BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG() for the lo < hi test in clamp()
