Subject[PATCH 3.18 51/68] tty/isicom: fix big-endian compile warning
Date
3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

commit f3e2d56dce47dbd0bb3f69f84741b439542fef37 upstream.

Building an arm allmodconfig kernel triggers a lengthy but harmless
warning in the isicom driver:

drvers/tty/isicom.c: In function 'isicom_send_break':
uapi/linux/swab.h:13:15: warning: integer overflow in expression [-Woverflow]
(((__u16)(x) & (__u16)0x00ffU) << 8) | \

^
drivers/tty/isicom.c:1058:2: note: in expansion of macro 'outw'
outw((length & 0xff00), base);
^

Apparently, the problem is related to the fact that the value 0xff00,
when used as a 16-bit number, is negative and passed into bitwise
operands of the generic byte swapping code.

Marking the input argument as unsigned in both technically correct
and avoids the warning.
