drivers/net/smsc911x.c: Fix resource size off by 1 error
The call resource_size(res) returns res->end - res->start + 1 and thus the second change is semantics-preserving. res_size is then used as the second argument of a call to request_mem_region, and the memory allocated by this call appears to be the same as what is released in the two calls to release_mem_region. So the size argument for those calls should be resource_size(size) as well. Alternatively, in the second call to release_mem_region, the second argument could be res_size, as that variable has already been initialized at the point of this call. The problem was found using the following semantic patch: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ struct resource *res; @@ - (res->end - res->start) + 1 + resource_size(res) @@ struct resource *res; @@ - res->end - res->start + BAD(resource_size(res)) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
