From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sat Sep 09 2017 - 19:02:24 EST
3.16.48-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Malcolm Priestley <tvboxspy@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 867510bde14e7b7fc6dd0f50b48f6753cfbd227a upstream.
BSSIDR has two byte alignment on PCI ioremap correct the write
by swapping to 16 bits first.
This fixes a problem that the device associates fail because
the filter is not set correctly.
