[PATCH 1/1] mfd: tps65911-comparator: Fix an off by one bug

From: Lee Jones
Date: Tue May 01 2018 - 05:46:13 EST


The COMP1 and COMP2 elements are in 0 and 1 respectively so this code is
accessing the wrong elements and one space beyond the end of the array.

The "id" variable is never COMP (0) so that code can be removed.

History:

Dan was the originator of this patch and the author of the commit log,
but produced 2 code solutions which I wasn't happy with. The first
submission [0] introduced a COMP device, which after a quick check of
the datasheet [1] appeared to be fictitious. A subsequent submission
[2] conducted arithmetic in array indexes.

It is my belief that the correct solution is to roll which the
situation the hardware engineers presented us with and define COMP1
at position 0 and COMP2 at position 1 such that we can use the
simplest code possible to select them.

Dan wasn't happy to put his name to this, which I completely
understand. Calling SOMETHING1 0 (zero) is a little unnatural.

However, since I have no shame, I offered to submit it.
