arch/x86/kernel/pci-calgary_64.c: change simple_strtol to simple_strtoul
Impact: fix theoretical option string parsing overflow Since bridge is unsigned, it would seem better to use simple_strtoul that simple_strtol. A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @r2@ long e; position p; @@ e = simple_strtol@p(...) @@ position p != r2.p; type T; T e; @@ e = - simple_strtol@p + simple_strtoul (...) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Cc: muli@il.ibm.com Cc: jdmason@kudzu.us Cc: discuss@x86-64.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
