ldt->entries[] is allocated in alloc_ldt_struct(). It has ldt->nr_entries elements and ldt->nr_entries is capped at LDT_ENTRIES. So if "idx" is == ldt->nr_entries then we're reading beyond the end of the buffer. It seems duplicative to have two limit checks when one would work just as well so I removed the check against LDT_ENTRIES. The gdt_page.gdt[] array has GDT_ENTRIES entries.

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.
