[patch] iommu/amd: fix type bug in flush code

From: Dan Carpenter
Date: Fri Mar 02 2012 - 01:59:31 EST


write_file_bool() modifies 32 bits of data, so "amd_iommu_unmap_flush"
needs to be 32 bits as well or we'll corrupt memory. Fortunately it
looks like the data is aligned with a gap after the declaration so this
is harmless in production.
