From 1fca350b761631d182c2e8bce530896e66404bc2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Larry Finger Date: Wed, 8 Oct 2014 12:44:55 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] rtlwifi: Fix possible unaligned array in ether_addr_copy() Two macros used to copy BSSID information use ether_addr_copy(), thus the arrays must be 2-byte aligned. In one case, the array could become unaligned if the struct containing it were changed. Use the __unaligned(2) attribute to retain the necessary alignment. In addition, the magic number used to specify the size of the array is replaced by ETH_ALEN. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger Acked-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: John W.
