[Crash-utility] [PATCH v3 3/4] Set name_hash_next field to be NULL for the newly installed elements
The newly installed element may contain junk data in the name_hash_next
field. If it does, it will corrupt the hash table. Thus name_hash_next
field should be set to NULL when the element is installed successfully
into the hash table.
