Subject: [PATCH] airo: Fix integer overflow warning
Date: Wed, 25 Nov 2009 22:55:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200911252255.11570.mb@bu3sch.de> (raw)

On BigEndian gcc complains:

drivers/net/wireless/airo.c: In function ‘sniffing_mode’:
drivers/net/wireless/airo.c:4809: warning: integer overflow in expression

Fix this by doing the bitwise AND on the host-endian value.

---

I don't know why GCC warns, however. The original code looks OK to me, too.
