From b52da4054ee0bf9ecb44996f2c83236ff50b3812 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Corey Minyard corey@minyard.net Date: Fri, 5 Sep 2025 11:33:39 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ipmi: Rework user message limit handling
The limit on the number of user messages had a number of issues, improper counting in some cases and a use after free.
Restructure how this is all done to handle more in the receive message allocation routine, so all refcouting and user message limit counts are done in that routine. It's a lot cleaner and safer.
