Subject: [PATCH] iio: sca3000: Potential endian bug in sca3000_read_event_value()
Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2019 12:18:28 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190621091828.GA1878@mwanda> (raw)

The problem is that "ret" is an int but we're casting it as
"(unsigned long *)&ret" when we do the for_each_set_bit() loop.  This
will not work on big endian 64 bit systems.
