[PATCH 0/3] staging: rtl8723bs: Replace bare 'uint' with 'unsigned int'

[Moksh Panicker]

This series replaces bare uses of 'uint' with 'unsigned int' in the
rtl8723bs staging driver, as part of cleaning up unusual variable types
listed in the driver's TODO file.

Each patch addresses one file independently.

Moksh Panicker (3):
  staging: rtl8723bs: Replace bare 'uint' with 'unsigned int' in rtw_cmd.c
  staging: rtl8723bs: Replace bare 'uint' with 'unsigned int' in xmit_linux.c
  staging: rtl8723bs: Replace bare 'uint' with 'unsigned int' in rtw_ap.c

[PATCH 1/3] staging: rtl8723bs: Replace bare 'uint' with 'unsigned int' in rtw_cmd.c

[Moksh Panicker]

Replace bare use of 'uint' with 'unsigned int' in rtw_joinbss_cmd().
This fixes the following checkpatch.pl warning:
