Subject: [PATCH] staging: fieldbus: anybus-s: force endiannes annotation
Date: Sun, 28 Apr 2019 04:33:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1556418804-10266-2-git-send-email-hofrat@osadl.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1556418804-10266-1-git-send-email-hofrat@osadl.org>

While the endiannes is being handled correctly sparse was unhappy with
the missing annotation as be16_to_cpu() expects a __be16.

Problem reported by sparse

As far as I understand sparse here the __force is actually the only 
solution possible to inform sparse that the endiannes handling is ok

Patch was compile-tested with. x86_64_defconfig + FIELDBUS_DEV=m,
HMS_ANYBUSS_BUS=m

Patch is against 5.1-rc6 (localversion-next is next-20190426)
