[PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.9 069/100] backlight: pwm_bl: Fix overflow condition

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

 



From: Derek Basehore <dbasehore@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 5d0c49acebc9488e37db95f1d4a55644e545ffe7 ]

This fixes an overflow condition that can happen with high max
brightness and period values in compute_duty_cycle. This fixes it by
using a 64 bit variable for computing the duty cycle.
