[PATCH 3.16 014/133] rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix HW_VAR_NAV_UPPER operation

[Ben Hutchings]

3.16.51-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d28ac7be15c70343cb270648e252f54d770eca6a upstream.

The cast here is wrong.  We want to cast the pointer but we accidentally
do a no-op cast of the value.  We normally want to set us_nav_upper to
WIFI_NAV_UPPER_US (30000) but because of this bug we instead set it to
184 on little endian systems and 0 on big endian ones.
