From 1e6a9e56252399ae8c143f2327b4bb8cd289c3d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anton Vorontsov Date: Mon, 18 Jun 2012 19:15:53 -0700 Subject: pstore/ram_core: Better ECC size checking - Instead of exploiting unsigned overflows (which doesn't work for all sizes), use straightforward checking for ECC total size not exceeding initial buffer size; - Printing overflowed buffer_size is not informative. Instead, print ecc_size and buffer_size; - No need for buffer_size argument in persistent_ram_init_ecc(), we can address prz->buffer_size directly.
