Subject: [PATCH] driver core: Prevent overflow from causing infinite loops
Date: Tue, 10 Dec 2019 17:41:37 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2201ce63a2a171ffd2ed14e867875316efcf71db.camel@theschwartz.xyz> (raw)

num_resources in the platform_device struct is declared as a u32.
The for loops that iterate over num_resources use an int as the counter,
which can cause infinite loops on architectures with smaller ints.
Change the loop counters to u32.
