[PATCH] [156/275] xhci: Fix errors in the running total calculations in the TRB math

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Wed Mar 30 2011 - 17:37:33 EST


2.6.35-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
From: Paul Zimmerman <Paul.Zimmerman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5807795bd4dececdf553719cc02869e633395787 upstream.

Calculations like

running_total = TRB_MAX_BUFF_SIZE -
(sg_dma_address(sg) & (TRB_MAX_BUFF_SIZE - 1));
if (running_total != 0)
num_trbs++;

are incorrect, because running_total can never be zero, so the if()
expression will never be true. I think the intention was that
running_total be in the range of 0 to TRB_MAX_BUFF_SIZE-1, not 1
to TRB_MAX_BUFF_SIZE. So adding a

running_total &= TRB_MAX_BUFF_SIZE - 1;

fixes the problem.

This patch should be queued for stable kernels back to 2.6.31.
