Subject: Re: [PATCH][next] scsi: pm80xx: Fix potential infinite loop


Colin,

> The for-loop iterates with a u8 loop counter i and compares this with
> the loop upper limit of pm8001_ha->max_q_num which is a u32 type.
> There is a potential infinite loop if pm8001_ha->max_q_num is larger
> than the u8 loop counter. Fix this by making the loop counter the same
> type as pm8001_ha->max_q_num.

Applied to 5.13/scsi-staging, thanks!
