From: Simon Horman <horms@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Change the type of the crc32 parameter of sctp_end_cksum() from __be32 to __u32 to reflect that fact that it is passed to cpu_to_le32(). There are five in-tree users of sctp_end_cksum(). The following four had warnings flagged by sparse which are no longer present with this change. net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_proto_sctp.c:sctp_nat_csum() net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_proto_sctp.c:sctp_csum_check() net/sctp/input.c:sctp_rcv_checksum() net/sctp/output.c:sctp_packet_transmit() The fifth user is net/netfilter/nf_nat_proto_sctp.c:sctp_manip_pkt(). It has been updated to pass a __u32 instead of a __be32, the value in question was already calculated in cpu byte-order. net/netfilter/nf_nat_proto_sctp.c:sctp_manip_pkt() has also been updated to assign the return value of sctp_end_cksum() directly to a variable of type __le32, matching the type of the return value. Previously the return value was assigned to a variable of type __be32 and then that variable was finally assigned to another variable of type __le32. Problems flagged by sparse. Compile and sparse tested only.
