There is no reproducer, however, the warning can be reproduced
by adding rules with ever smaller prefixes.

The sanity check ("does the policy match the node") uses the prefix value
of the node before its updated to the smaller value.

To fix this, update the prefix earlier.  The bug has no impact on tree
correctness, this is only to prevent a false warning.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
