Subject: patch "staging: rtl8192e: fix 2 byte alignment of register BSSIDR." added to staging-linus
Date: Mon, 15 May 2017 11:50:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1494841803195113@kroah.com> (raw)
This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
staging: rtl8192e: fix 2 byte alignment of register BSSIDR.
to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: staging: rtl8192e: fix 2 byte alignment of register BSSIDR.
BSSIDR has two byte alignment on PCI ioremap correct the write
by swapping to 16 bits first.
This fixes a problem that the device associates fail because
the filter is not set correctly.
