[PATCH net 07/14] mptcp: pm: userspace: fix address ID overflow

Message-ID <20260824-net-mptcp-misc-fixes-7-3-rc1-v1-7-a92309d121ca@kernel.org>
From: Qing Luo <[email protected]>

When all MPTCP address IDs (1-255) are exhausted in the userspace PM,
find_next_zero_bit() returns MPTCP_PM_MAX_ADDR_ID + 1 (256). This value
overflows when stored in the u8 field e->addr.id, resulting in ID 0
being stored and the entry being incorrectly added to the list.

ID 0 is reserved for the initial connection in MPTCP, so this overflow
can cause address conflicts.

Note: the in-kernel PM already has an 'endpoints == MPTCP_PM_MAX_ADDR_ID'
check in mptcp_pm_nl_append_new_local_addr() that returns -ERANGE before
reaching find_next_zero_bit(), preventing this overflow. So this fix only
addresses the userspace PM path.

Check the find_next_zero_bit() result against MPTCP_PM_MAX_ADDR_ID and
return -ENOSPC if all IDs are truly exhausted. Move the ID allocation
check before the memory allocation so that the error path does not need
to free the allocated entry.
