At the end of qtd_fill(), we assign the 'int count' variable to the 'size_t length' field of 'struct ehci_qtd' -- which implies a problematic type cast. Let's make that variable and the function's result *unsigned int* instead... Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the SVACE static analysis tool. Signed-off-by: Sergey Shtylyov <s.shtylyov@omp.ru> --- This patch is against the 'usb-next' branch of Greg KH's 'usb.git' repo. Changes in version 2: - changed 'u16' to *unsigned int* everywhere, repordering the declarations; - updated the type of the 'this_qtd_len' local variable qh_urb_transaction(); - rewrote the patch description. drivers/usb/host/ehci-q.c | 7 ++++--- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
