[PATCH 4.9 06/39] atm: zatm: fix memcmp casting

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Jun 24 2018 - 11:50:50 EST


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

From: Ivan Bornyakov <brnkv.i1@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f9c6442a8f0b1dde9e755eb4ff6fa22bcce4eabc ]

memcmp() returns int, but eprom_try_esi() cast it to unsigned char. One
can lose significant bits and get 0 from non-0 value returned by the
memcmp().
