[PATCH/RFC 2/2] ALSA: firewire-tascam: Fix integer overflow in midi_port_work()

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Mon Jan 11 2021 - 09:09:03 EST


As snd_fw_async_midi_port.consume_bytes is unsigned int, and
NSEC_PER_SEC is 1000000000L, the second multiplication in

port->consume_bytes * 8 * NSEC_PER_SEC / 31250

always overflows on 32-bit platforms, truncating the result. Fix this
by precalculating "NSEC_PER_SEC / 31250", which is an integer constant.

Note that this assumes port->consume_bytes <= 16777.

Compile-tested only.

I don't know the maximum transfer length of MIDI, but given it's an old
standard, I guess it's rather small. If it is larger than 16777, the
constant "8" should be replaced by "8ULL", to force 64-bit arithmetic.
