Subject: drivers/net/wireless/b43legacy/dma.c: remove the switch in b43legacy_dma_init()
From: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

The gcc 3.4 fork used to compile the MN10300 port emits unwanted
__ucmpdi2() calls for this switch on a 64bit value.

Fix it by transforming the switch to equivalent "if ... else if ..."
statements.

Andrew,

When I received your E-mail, I wondered why there was not a similar
"fix" for b43. It was then I discovered how much b43 and b43legacy had
diverged while I wasn't looking. I have no objections to your patch;
however, I wonder if it might be better to fix b43legacy in the same
way that b43 was changed. I have prepared and tested such a fix (shown
below). The only problem with this is that the patch is much more
intrusive than Adrian's and there may be a problem getting it into
2.6.26 before it is released, but then I do not think that you intend to
send the -mm patch to 2.6.26.

What do you think is the best route to go?

Larry

I don't think we need to fix this in 2.6.26 - I doubt if anyone uses
this driver on frv - it's mainly a "make allmodconfig work on FRV"
thing.

I think it hardly matters, as there are no 64bit legacy devices.
So you don't need that probing loop.
