CVE-2024-42082 is a Linux kernel XDP issue in __xdp_reg_mem_model(). When initialization of the memory-ID hash table fails because of memory-allocation failure, the function invokes WARN(). The relevant rhashtable parameter initialization failure path is not reachable because the parameters are statically defined and valid. The fix removes the unnecessary WARN() and returns the allocation error through normal error handling.
