[ Upstream commit 75a442581d05edaee168222ffbe00d4389785636 ] bpf_mem_cache_alloc_flags() may call __alloc() directly when there is no free object in free list, but it doesn't initialize the allocation hint for the returned pointer. It may lead to bad memory dereference when freeing the pointer, so fix it by initializing the allocation hint. Fixes: 822fb26bdb55 ("bpf: Add a hint to allocated objects.")

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
