Subject[patch 62/71] netfilter: xt_rateest: fix comparison with self
2.6.30-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

commit 4d900f9df5f0569c2dc536701e2c11b6d50ebebf upstream.

As noticed by Török Edwin <edwintorok@gmail.com>:

Compiling the kernel with clang has shown this warning:

net/netfilter/xt_rateest.c:69:16: warning: self-comparison always results in a
constant value
ret &= pps2 == pps2;
^
Looking at the code:
if (info->flags & XT_RATEEST_MATCH_BPS)
ret &= bps1 == bps2;
if (info->flags & XT_RATEEST_MATCH_PPS)
ret &= pps2 == pps2;
Judging from the MATCH_BPS case it seems to be a typo, with the intention of
comparing pps1 with pps2.
