[PATCH] staging: vt6656: fix Prefer ether_addr_copy() over memcpy() if the Ethernet addresses are __aligned(2)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch fixes the following checkpatch.pl warning:
fix Prefer ether_addr_copy() over memcpy() 
if the Ethernet addresses are __aligned(2)

Pahole showed that the 2 structs are aligned to u16

struct ieee80211_hdr {
