Title
net: netconsole: fix wrong warning
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: netconsole: fix wrong warning
A warning is triggered when there is insufficient space in the buffer
for userdata. However, this is not an issue since userdata will be sent
in the next iteration.
Current warning message:
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 13 PID: 3013042 at drivers/net/netconsole.c:1122 write_ext_msg+0x3b6/0x3d0
? write_ext_msg+0x3b6/0x3d0
console_flush_all+0x1e9/0x330
The code incorrectly issues a warning when this_chunk is zero, which is
a valid scenario. The warning should only be triggered when this_chunk
is negative.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
