Re: [PATCH] Input: max77693-haptic - fix potential overflow

Hi Dmitry,

2014ë 10ì 29ì 01:43ì Dmitry Torokhov ì(ê) ì ê:
Expression haptic->pwm_dev->period * haptic->magnitude is of type 'unsigned
int' and may overflow. We need to convert one of the operands to u64 before
multiplying, instead of casting result (potentially overflown) to u64.

There was casting miss in multiplying.
Thanks.
