From 63e144c9d6ffa791c1402f4ee4551c1b9f5a336a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2015 14:42:27 +0300 Subject: ti-st: clean up data types (fix harmless memory corruption) The big issue here is: of_property_read_u32(np, "flow_cntrl", (u32 *)&dt_pdata->flow_cntrl); "->flow_cntrl" is a char so when we write a 32 bit number to it then it corrupts past the end of the char. It's probably hard to notice because the struct has padding so the code works on little endian systems. But on a big endian system the code would fail and on a 64 bit, big endian systems then "nshutdown_gpio" and "baud_rate" would be buggy as well.
