[PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: add in a missing break in switch statement

[PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: add in a missing break in switch statement

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The switch case RATR_INX_WIRELESS_MC has a missing break, this seems
to be unintentional as the setting of variable ret gets overwritten
when the case falls through to the following RATR_INX_WIRELESS_AC_5N
case.  Fix this by adding in the missing break.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1167237 ("Missing break in switch")

Fixes: 3c05bedb5fef ("Staging: rtl8812ae: Add Realtek 8821 PCI WIFI driver")

Is the fixes line correct? This patch is not for staging.

No, the correct fixes commit is 21e4b0726dc67 (" rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Move driver 
from staging to regular tree").

This driver was initially placed in staging as it was needed for a special 
project, which is the commit that Colin used. As the patch subject states, the 
driver was later moved to the regular wireless tree.

That break is required, thus ACKed-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>

thanks,

Larry

Why not remove this entirely and use the generic routine in
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/base.c?

Is there a real difference?

I did not see any difference other than the removal of a bunch of magic numbers 
and better formatting.

Colin,

Do you want to push the new patch removing the duplicate routine from rtl8821ae?
