[ofa-general] [PATCH] opensm/osm_ucast_lash: fix buffer overflow

Hi Sasha,

The idea would be to let lash complete the analysis and report how many VLs
would be required even if that is more than the number available. It would
require allocating more memory than it does now. In my case I did this by
hacking opensm to set the number of VLs to a large number (64) and letting
it run.

May be it is how to know how many VLs does LASH require for a given
topology?
