[PATCH] greybus: gb-beagleplay: fix restricted __le16 degrades to integer warning

[Ayush Singh]

greybus message header->size are of type __le16, so to fix this warnings
we are using le16_to_cpu() macros.

This is more than a warning, it's a bug (though it has no
effect with a little-endian native CPU).

I suggest you add:

Fixes: ec558bbfea671 ("greybus: Add BeaglePlay Linux Driver")

Should your hdlc_payload->len field be defined as little-endian?
I've only scanned through this file at this point but I'm thinking
there might be other endianness fixes needed as well.

Re: [PATCH] greybus: gb-beagleplay: fix restricted __le16 degrades to integer warning

[Ayush Singh]

I apologize for the late response (college exams were going on).

I will go through the driver to find if any other endianness fixes are 
needed.

As for `hdlc_payload->len`, the whole `hdlc_payload` is an abstraction 
to store array length with the actual pointer. The len is never actually 
sent over HDLC, so it should be fine.
