Subject: [PATCH] video: fbdev: fix setting of pixclock because a pass-by-value error
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2020 18:02:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200723170227.996229-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

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

The pixclock is being set locally because it is being passed as a
pass-by-value argument rather than pass-by-reference, so the computed
pixclock is never being set in var->pixclock. Fix this by passing
by reference.

[This dates back to 2002, I found the offending commit from the git
history git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git ]

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
Fixes: 115f4504a64a ("Removed currcon and other console related code. Very little is now left.")
