[PATCH] kdbus: fix type conversion in item macroses

From: Sergei Zviagintsev
Date: Thu Jun 04 2015 - 06:39:58 EST


KDBUS_ITEM_NEXT and KDBUS_ITEMS_END macroses do not enclose _i argument
into parentheses when applying the cast operator. If complex expression
passed, e.g.

KDBUS_ITEM_NEXT(condition ? a : b)

then type conversion to (u8 *) will go wrong due to precedence rules.

Use parentheses properly. Update documentation.
