[PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: remove an accidental '-' character
Posted by Dan Carpenter 3 months, 1 week ago
The "->allstasleep" variable is a 1 bit bitfield.  It can only be
0 or 1.  This "= -1" assignement was supposed to be "= 1".  This
doesn't change how the code works, it's just a cleanup.

Found with a static checker rule that Harshit and I wrote.

Yes, this patch doesn't change logic at all. However, it looks like existing
code is wrong, since other places in the same pattern in this driver set to 0.
More, I check vendor driver which also sets this value to 0.

Ah.  Good.  Thanks.

Could you send that patch and give me a Reported-by tag?
