[PATCH -next v2] scsi: sd: Fix unsigned expression compared with zero in sd_spinup_disk()
Posted by Jiapeng Chong 1 year, 7 months ago
The return value from the call to scsi_execute_cmd() is int. However, the
return value is being assigned to an unsigned int variable 'the_result',
so making 'the_result' an int.

./drivers/scsi/sd.c:2333:6-16: WARNING: Unsigned expression compared with zero: the_result > 0.

The following is missing from this patch:
- An explanation of why this patch fixes a read of uninitialized data.
- Fixed: and Cc: stable tags.

Thanks,
