commit c1a2086e2d8c4eb4e8630ba752e911ec180dec67 upstream.

The removal path for selftest data has an off by one error that causes
the code to dereference beyond the end of the nodes[] array on the first
pass through. The old code only worked by chance on a lot of platforms,
but the bug was recently exposed on aarch64.

The fix is simple. Decrement the node count before dereferencing, not
after.
