3.6.11.1 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Akinobu Mita [ Upstream commit 143cdd8f33909ff5a153e3f02048738c5964ba26 ] batadv_iv_ogm_emit_send_time() attempts to calculates a random integer in the range of 'orig_interval +- BATADV_JITTER' by the below lines. msecs = atomic_read(&bat_priv->orig_interval) - BATADV_JITTER; msecs += (random32() % 2 * BATADV_JITTER); But it actually gets 'orig_interval' or 'orig_interval - BATADV_JITTER' because '%' and '*' have same precedence and associativity is left-to-right. This adds the parentheses at the appropriate position so that it matches original intension.
