Subject: [PATCH] net: em_cmp.c use unaligned access helpers
Date: Sun, 29 Jun 2008 16:20:37 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1214781637.6037.13.camel@brick> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080629095538.GN20815@postel.suug.ch>
Explicitly check the endianness and use the appropriate unaligned
access helpers rather than conditionally byteswapping after the
unaligned access.
Fixes a bug on big-endian machines where be16/be32_to_cpu are no-ops
and would miss byteswapping in the le case.
