Subject: [patch] Thermal: cpufreq cooling: endian bug in cpufreq_get_max_state()
Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2013 10:18:28 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130417071828.GD7923@elgon.mountain> (raw)
This code doesn't work on big endian systems because we're storing low
values in the high bits of the unsigned long. It makes it a very high
value instead.
