Subject: [patch] mwifiex: potential integer underflow in mwifiex_ret_wmm_get_status()
Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2013 11:57:30 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130925085729.GC6661@elgon.mountain> (raw)

If "resp_len" gets set to negative then it counts as a high positive
value.

I spotted this reviewing the int => bool changes, but I don't have the
hardware and can't test it.
