Details

Summary

Allocate smallest unit number from pool from ifc_alloc_unit_next() and exact unit number (if available) from ifc_alloc_unit_specific().

While here, fix potential endless loop (*unit < 0 -> alloc_unr() succeeds but ifunit() fails -> (*unit)++ and then alloc_unr_specific() fails ->(*unit) is overridden with return result (-1) and then used instead of previous unit number).

Event Timeline

Yes (but without reassigning *unit - it will not change after alloc_unr_specific() anyway).

Can you please grab the PR? :)
