Subject: [PATCH 3.14 56/68] iio: Fix endianness issue in ak8975_read_axis()

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Meerwald <pmeerw@...erw.net>

commit 8ba42fb7b17649c9ab5b5e79d4e90370a0b4645e upstream.

i2c_smbus_read_word_data() does host endian conversion already,
no need for le16_to_cpu()
