From 8268bd48af9aae5e079d3ba8403ae459ff06cbcb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Vetter Date: Sat, 5 Apr 2014 18:24:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] drm/i2c/tda998x: Fix signed overflow issue This is C standard hair-splitting, but afaict - sum will be promoted to signed int in computation since uint8_t fits - signed overflow is undefined. No we need to add up an awful lot of bytes to actually make it overflow. But I guess the real risk is gcc spotting this and going bananas. Fix this by simply using unsigned in to force all computations to use the well-defined unsigned behaviour. Spotted by coverity. v2: Simplify the entire computation as suggested by Jean.
