From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue May 23 2017 - 18:06:03 EST


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

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

From: Malcolm Priestley <tvboxspy@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 867510bde14e7b7fc6dd0f50b48f6753cfbd227a upstream.

BSSIDR has two byte alignment on PCI ioremap correct the write
by swapping to 16 bits first.

This fixes a problem that the device associates fail because
the filter is not set correctly.
