From: Colin Ian King <colin.k...@canonical.com> Change predecrement compare to post decrement compare to avoid an unsigned integer wrap-around comparison when decrementing idx in the while loop.
For example, when idx is zero, the current situation will predecrement idx in the while loop, wrapping idx to the maximum signed integer and cause out of bounds reads on rxq_info->msix_tbl[idx].
