X-Git-Tag: MMI-PSA29.97-13-9~5548^2~3 X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e4eda884db7930cee434828759064b4711604078;p=GitHub%2FMotorolaMobilityLLC%2Fkernel-slsi.git net: Make IP alignment calulations clearer. The assignmnet: ip_align = strict ? 2 : NET_IP_ALIGN; in compare_pkt_ptr_alignment() trips up Coverity because we can only get to this code when strict is true, therefore ip_align will always be 2 regardless of NET_IP_ALIGN's value. So just assign directly to '2' and explain the situation in the comment above. Reported-by: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" Signed-off-by: David S.
