[PATCH 6/7] brcmfmac: remove 'always false' condition from brcmf_c_mkiovar_bsscfg

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

 



From: Arend van Spriel <arend@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

The parameter buflen is unsigned so the condition buflen < 0 is
always false. The patch fixes the if statement checking the buffer
length.
