Hi,

static analysis with Coverity has detected an issues in the rtl8723bs
wifi driver:

File: drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/os_dep/ioctl_linux.c in function
rtw_dbg_port():

CID 18480: Operands don't affect result (CONSTANT_EXPRESSION_RESULT)
dead_error_condition: The condition (extra_arg & 7U) > 7U cannot be true.

        if ((extra_arg & 0x07) > 0x07)
                padapter->driver_ampdu_spacing = 0xFF;
        else
                padapter->driver_ampdu_spacing = extra_arg;


I'm not sure if the mask is (in)correct or the value it is being
compared to 0x07 is (in)correct (or both!)

Colin

Hmm, after looking at the rest of the code, it is clear that valid
values for driver_ampdu_spacing or 0 - 7, otherwise it should
be set to 0xff which means use the driver default.

I will send a patch fixing this.

Regards,

Hans
