David Miller 3d6f4a20cc endian: Always evaluate arguments. ... Changeset 7fa897b91a ("ide: trivial sparse annotations") created an IDE bootup regression on big-endian systems. In drivers/ide/ide-iops.c, function ide_fixstring() we now have the loop: for (p = end ; p != s;) be16_to_cpus((u16 *)(p -= 2)); which will never terminate on big-endian because in such a configuration be16_to_cpus() evaluates to "do { } while (0)" Therefore, always evaluate the arguments to nop endian transformation operations.
