Subject: [PATCH v6 22/24] netfs: Check for too much data being read
Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2026 11:30:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260716103030.3065561-23-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260716103030.3065561-1-dhowells@redhat.com>
Put in a check in read subreq termination to detect more data being read
for a subrequest than was requested.
