Smatch reports the following warning:

impossible condition '(wireless_mode == 256) => (0-255 == 256)'

This warning arises because commit acc6907b87a9 ("rtlwifi: Fix warning
from ieee80211_get_tx_rates() when using 5G") now checks the wireless
mode for WIRELESS_MODE_AC_ONLY (BIT(8)) in _rtl_rc_rate_set_series().
As a result, all quantities used to store the wireless mode must be u16.

This patch also reorders struct rtl_sta_info to save a little space.

I can't find commit acc6907b87a9 from any of my trees. And oddly enough
I can't either any commits with title "rtlwifi: Fix warning from
ieee80211_get_tx_rates() when using 5G". I can fix it before commiting
but what should I use?

Also the fixes line should not have the word "commit".

Kalle,

I do not know where I got that commit and title. The correct reference is commit d76d65fd2695 ("rtlwifi: fix broken VHT support").

If you would rather not fix this on commit, I can submit a new version.

Thanks,

Larry
