Subject: fix bad macro param in timer.c
From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
We have
#define INDEX(N) (base->timer_jiffies >> (TVR_BITS + N * TVN_BITS)) & TVN_MASK
and it's used via
list = varray[i + 1]->vec + (INDEX(i + 1));
So, due to underparenthesisation, this INDEX(i+1) is now a ... (TVR_BITS + i
+ 1 * TVN_BITS)) ...
So this bugfix changes behaviour. Why did it work before?
