Subject: [PATCH v2] staging: rtl8712: avoid a useless call to memset().
Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2012 00:20:48 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1355185248-26842-1-git-send-email-tipecaml@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <0121210085516.GO6568@mwanda>
In r8711_wx_get_wap(), make sure we do not call memcpy() on a memory area that
has just been zeroed by a call to memset().
