Hi Christophe,

thanks for bringing this to my attention.

When I made my initial review of the patch I did not notice this subtle
change. However, subsequently, the Corigine team did notice and our
conclusion is that it is fine: the code correctly handles all expected
values including 255.

Kind regards,
Simon
