Indeed - especially as the '-' code is really:
	checksum = (int)(u16)NVM_SUM - checksum;

Hi Jacek,

Thanks for the patchset.

Some feedback at a high level:

1. It's normal for patch-sets, to have a cover letter.

2. Please provide some text in the patch description.
   I know these changes are trivial. But we'd like to have something there.
   E.g.

   Remove unnecessary cast of constants to u16,
   allowing the C type system to do it's thing.

   No behavioural change intended.
   Compile tested only.

3. This patchset should probably be targeted at iwl-next, like this:

4. Please make sure the patchset applies cleanly to it's target tree.
   It seems that in it's current form the patchset doesn't

As for this patch itself, it looks good to me.
But I think you missed two.

Sorry, I now see that the 2nd of the two hunks above is for patch 2/4.

Just to be sure, iwl-next is this one:

refs/heads/for-next
?

Rather: I have not touched subtraction on purpose.

But checking the compiler output - yes, it can be dropped as well.

I'll prepare an updated patch set with subtraction changes across Intel drivers included.
