taskstats: fix the length of cgroupstats_cmd_get_policy
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
cgroupstats_cmd_get_policy is [CGROUPSTATS_CMD_ATTR_MAX+1],
taskstats_cmd_get_policy[TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_MAX+1],
but their family.maxattr is TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_MAX.
CGROUPSTATS_CMD_ATTR_MAX is less than TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_MAX,
so we could end up accessing out-of-bound.

Change cgroupstats_cmd_get_policy to TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_MAX+1,
this is safe because the rest are initialized to 0's.
