[ Upstream commit dea20579a69ab68cdca6adf79bb7c0c162eb9b72 ]
staging: wlan-ng: prism2mgmt.c: This patches fixes a double endian conversion. cpu_to_le16() was called twice first in prism2mgmt_scan and again inside hfa384x_drvr_setconfig16() for the same variable, hence it was swapped twice. Incidentally, it also fixed the following sparse warning:
drivers/staging/wlan-ng/prism2mgmt.c:173:30: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different base types) drivers/staging/wlan-ng/prism2mgmt.c:173:30: expected unsigned short [unsigned] [usertype] word drivers/staging/wlan-ng/prism2mgmt.c:173:30: got restricted __le16 [usertype] <noident>
Unfortunately, only compile tested.
