[PATCH] fat: silence warning for 64KB PAGE_SIZE builds

From: Olof Johansson
Date: Wed Nov 07 2007 - 00:06:36 EST


Annoying gcc warning:

fs/fat/inode.c: In function 'fat_fill_super':
fs/fat/inode.c:1222: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range of data type

logical_sector_size can never be more than 16 bits worth, but switching
it to an int silences gcc. It's a sanity check that can never fail with
64KB PAGE_SIZE but it seems like it'd still be useful for other page
sizes, so it's worth keeping:

if (!is_power_of_2(logical_sector_size)
|| (logical_sector_size < 512)
|| (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE < logical_sector_size)) {
if (!silent)
printk(KERN_ERR "FAT: bogus logical sector size %u\n",
logical_sector_size);
brelse(bh);
goto out_invalid;
}
