[PATCH 6.6 099/322] minmax: allow comparisons of int against unsigned char/short

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

 



6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Laight <David.Laight@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4ead534fba42fc4fd41163297528d2aa731cd121 upstream.

Since 'unsigned char/short' get promoted to 'signed int' it is safe to
compare them against an 'int' value.
