If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Matthias Kaehlcke commit 93f56de259376d7e4fff2b2d104082e1fa66e237 upstream. When clang detects a non-boolean constant in a logical operation it generates a 'constant-logical-operand' warning. In ieee80211_try_rate_control_ops_get() the result of strlen() is used in a logical operation, clang resolves the expression to an (integer) constant at compile time when clang's builtin strlen function is used. Change the condition to check for strlen() > 0 to make the constant operand boolean and thus avoid the warning.
