dac124s085_set_brightness() builds a 16-bit SPI command word:
u16 word;
...
word = cpu_to_le16(((led->id) << 14) | REG_WRITE_UPDATE |
(brightness & 0xfff));
ret = spi_write(led->spi, (const u8 *)&word, sizeof(word));
cpu_to_le16() returns __le16, but the local 'word' is declared as
plain u16, which sparse flags:
drivers/leds/leds-dac124s085.c:42:14: warning: incorrect type in
assignment (different base types)
The bytes that hit the wire are correct because cpu_to_le16() does
the right thing on either endianness, but mixing the annotated and
unannotated types defeats sparse's __bitwise checking and would let
a future reader treat the buffer as a host-endian u16 by mistake.
Declare 'word' as __le16 to match how it is built and consumed.
No functional change.
