Subject: [PATCH] uvcvideo: prevent invormation loss with removing implicit casting
Date: Wed, 08 Apr 2009 01:11:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49DBDDB9.6020409@freemail.hu> (raw)

From: Márton Németh <nm127@freemail.hu>

The uvcvideo driver supports only one input, which is input 0. For all
other input index the return value shall be EINVAL. This patch fixes the
problem when the value 0x80000000 was incorrectly casted and treated as
a zero value.

The patch was tested with v4l-test 0.10 [2] with CNF7129 webcam found on
EeePC 901.
