This reverts commit bcecb4bbf88aa03171c30652bca761cf27755a6b. If we try to allocate an extra entry as the above commit did, and when the requested size is UINT_MAX, addition overflows causing zero size to be passed to kmalloc(). kmalloc then returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR with a subsequent crash.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
