Show all headers | View raw

4.2.8-ckt2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

commit 389e4e04ad2d4887c7bdd7c01a93d3dfa5c14a06 upstream.

The problem here is that at the end of the loop we test for if
idc->vnic_wait_limit is zero, but since idc->vnic_wait_limit-- is a
post-op, it actually ends up set to (u8)-1.  I have fixed this by
moving the decrement inside the loop.

Fixes: 486a5bc77a4a ('qlcnic: Add support for 83xx suspend and resume.')
