tipc: fix wrong return value from function tipc_node_try_addr()
The function for checking if there is an node address conflict is supposed to return a suggestion for a new address if it finds a conflict, and zero otherwise. But in case the peer being checked is previously unknown it does instead return a "suggestion" for the checked address itself. This results in a DSC_TRIAL_FAIL_MSG being sent unecessarily to the peer, and sometimes makes the trial period starting over again. Fixes: 25b0b9c4e835 ("tipc: handle collisions of 32-bit node address hash values") Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
