[PATCH 3.13 001/105] Bluetooth: Fix HCI H5 corrupted ack value

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Mon Oct 27 2014 - 15:32:02 EST


3.13.11.10 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Loic Poulain <loic.poulain@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 4807b51895dce8aa650ebebc51fa4a795ed6b8b8 upstream.

In this expression: seq = (seq - 1) % 8
seq (u8) is implicitly converted to an int in the arithmetic operation.
So if seq value is 0, operation is ((0 - 1) % 8) => (-1 % 8) => -1.
The new seq value is 0xff which is an invalid ACK value, we expect 0x07.
It leads to frequent dropped ACK and retransmission.
Fix this by using '&' binary operator instead of '%'.
