Fix nomenclature for USB and PCI wireless devices

2023-08-25T09:56:49+00:00

A mouse that uses a USB connection is called a "USB mouse" device (or "USB mouse" for short), not a "mouse USB" device. By analogy, a WiFi adapter that connects to the host computer via USB is a "USB wireless" device, not a "wireless USB" device. (The latter term more properly refers to a defunct Wireless USB specification, which described a technology for sending USB protocol messages over an ultra wideband radio link.) Similarly for a WiFi adapter card that plugs into a PCIe slot: It is a "PCIe wireless" device, not a "wireless PCIe" device. Rephrase the text in the kernel source where the word ordering is wrong.

wifi: zd1201: Avoid clashing function prototypes

2022-11-16T09:31:47+00:00

When built with Control Flow Integrity, function prototypes between caller and function declaration must match. These mismatches are visible at compile time with the new -Wcast-function-type-strict in Clang[1]. Fix a total of 30 warnings like these: ../drivers/net/wireless/zydas/zd1201.c:1560:2: warning: cast from 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, struct iw_freq *, char *)' to 'iw_handler' (aka 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, union iwreq_data *, char *)') converts to incompatible function type [-Wcast-function-type-strict] (iw_handler) zd1201_set_freq, /* SIOCSIWFREQ */ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The zd1201 Wireless Extension handler callbacks (iw_handler) use a union for the data argument. Actually use the union and perform explicit member selection in the function body instead of having a function prototype mismatch.There are no resulting binary differences before/after changes. These changes were made partly manually and partly with the help of Coccinelle.
