[PATCH 3/3] drivers/vlynq/vlynq.c: Fix resource size off by 1 error

From: Julia Lawall
Date: Sat Jul 04 2009 - 17:33:34 EST


From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx>

In this case, the calls to request_mem_region, ioremap, and
release_mem_region all have a consistent length argument, len, but since in
other files (res->end - res->start) + 1, equivalent to resource_size(res),
is used for a resource-typed structure res, one could consider whether the
same should be done here.

The problem was found using the following semantic patch:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>
@@
struct resource *res;
@@

- (res->end - res->start) + 1
+ resource_size(res)

@@
struct resource *res;
@@

- res->end - res->start
+ BAD(resource_size(res))
// </smpl>
