This patch introduces a helper variable, which catches possible negative error values returned by mtrr_add() Signed-off-by: Eric Sesterhenn <snakebyte@xxxxxx> Cc: Dave Airlie <airlied@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxx> --- drivers/video/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c | 5 +++-- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff -puN drivers/video/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c~signedness-issue-in-drivers-video-intelfb-intelfbdrvc drivers/video/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c --- a/drivers/video/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c~signedness-issue-in-drivers-video-intelfb-intelfbdrvc +++ a/drivers/video/intelfb/intelfbdrv.c @@ -418,12 +418,13 @@ module_exit(intelfb_exit); #ifdef CONFIG_MTRR static inline void __devinit set_mtrr(struct intelfb_info *dinfo) { - dinfo->mtrr_reg = mtrr_add(dinfo->aperture.physical, + int mtrr_reg = mtrr_add(dinfo->aperture.physical, dinfo->aperture.size, MTRR_TYPE_WRCOMB, 1); - if (dinfo->mtrr_reg < 0) { + if (mtrr_reg < 0) { ERR_MSG("unable to set MTRR\n"); return; } + dinfo->mtrr_reg = mtrr_reg; dinfo->has_mtrr = 1; } static inline void unset_mtrr(struct intelfb_info *dinfo) _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from snakebyte@xxxxxx are git-gfs2.patch signedness-issue-in-drivers-video-intelfb-intelfbdrvc.patch signedness-issue-in-drivers-net-phy-phy_devicec.patch signedness-issue-in-drivers-scsi-iprc.patch signedness-issue-in-drivers-scsi-osstc.patch signedness-issue-in-drivers-usb-gadget-etherc.patch - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
