[rtc-linux] [PATCH] rtc: fix rtc_time64_to_tm calculation

From: Andrzej Hajda <hidden>
Date: 2016-01-07 12:12:18
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: real time clock (rtc) subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Alexandre Belloni, Linus Torvalds

Type of local variable days has been changed recently to unsigned,
but it can take negative values. As a result it works incorrectly for some
arguments. The patch fixes it.

The problem has been detected using proposed semantic patch
scripts/coccinelle/tests/unsigned_lesser_than_zero.cocci [1].

Fixes: cab572b82c4b ('rtc: fix overflow and incorrect calculation in rtc_time64_to_tm')
