[PATCH] b43: use temporary rate_index for error checking

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

The mac80211 rate_index changed to be a u8, so
can't hold the negative error value properly.
Use a temporary variable for error checking.
