[PATCH] Bug in fs/afs/write.c functionafs_write_back_from_locked_page()

From: Mika Kukkonen
Date: Thu May 10 2007 - 08:05:37 EST


Following bug was uncovered by compiling with '-W' flag:

CC [M] fs/afs/write.o
fs/afs/write.c: In function âafs_write_back_from_locked_pageâ:
fs/afs/write.c:398: warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is always true

Loop variable 'n' is unsigned, so wraps around happily as far as I can
see. Trival fix attached (compile tested only).
