mainlining shenanigans
59936430e6
The kernel test robot reported the following sparse warning:
".../lpfc_els.c:3984:25: sparse: sparse: cast from restricted __be16"
For the error being flagged, using be32_to_cpu() on a be16 data type, it
was simple enough. But a review of other elements and warnings were also
evaluated.
This patch corrected several items in the original patch:
- Using be32_to_cpu() on a be16 data type
- cpu_to_le32() used on a std uint32_t (CPU) data type.
Note: This is a byte array, but stored in LE layout by hardware at
32-bit boundaries. So it possibly needed conversion.
- Using cpu_to_le32() on a std uint16_t and assigned to a char typeA
- Using le32_to_cpu() on a le16 type
- Missing cpu_to_le16() on an assignment

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
