[PATCH] net: qla3xxx: Remove overflowing shift statement

From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Fri Oct 12 2018 - 22:18:55 EST


Clang currently warns:

drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qla3xxx.c:384:24: warning: signed shift
result (0xF00000000) requires 37 bits to represent, but 'int' only has
32 bits [-Wshift-overflow]
((ISP_NVRAM_MASK << 16) | qdev->eeprom_cmd_data));
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~
1 warning generated.

The warning is certainly accurate since ISP_NVRAM_MASK is defined as
(0x000F << 16) which is then shifted by 16, resulting in 64424509440,
well above UINT_MAX.

Given that this is the only location in this driver where ISP_NVRAM_MASK
is shifted again, it seems likely that ISP_NVRAM_MASK was originally
defined without a shift and during the move of the shift to the
definition, this statement wasn't properly removed (since ISP_NVRAM_MASK
is used in the statenent right above this). Only the maintainers can
confirm this since this statment has been here since the driver was
first added to the kernel.

I sent this diff in a RFC email to the email in the MAINTAINERS file
with no response. Given that this driver has not received any actual
Cavium/QLogic treatment since at least the moving of this file in
commit aa43c2158d5a ("qlogic: Move the QLogic drivers") back in 2011,
I'd be curious to see who is actually using this driver but I'll leave
that for another time.

I've added a few of the active 'drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic' Cavium
developers (hope they don't mind) to see if this makes any sense since I
don't have the hardware to test and I know they're active.
