net: dlink: Correct endianness handling of led_mode
As it's name suggests, parse_eeprom() parses EEPROM data. This is done by reading data, 16 bits at a time as follows: for (i = 0; i < 128; i++) ((__le16 *) sromdata)[i] = cpu_to_le16(read_eeprom(np, i)); sromdata is at the same memory location as psrom. And the type of psrom is a pointer to struct t_SROM. As can be seen in the loop above, data is stored in sromdata, and thus psrom, as 16-bit little-endian values. However, the integer fields of t_SROM are host byte order integers. And in the case of led_mode this leads to a little endian value being incorrectly treated as host byte order. Looking at rio_set_led_mode, this does appear to be a bug as that code masks led_mode with 0x1, 0x2 and 0x8. Logic that would be effected by a reversed byte order. This problem would only manifest on big endian hosts. Found by inspection while investigating a sparse warning regarding the crc field of t_SROM. I believe that warning is a false positive. And although I plan to send a follow-up to use little-endian types for other the integer fields of PSROM_t I do not believe that will involve any bug fixes. Compile tested only.
