From 67e0208acea29682f5766eb9f67f6f26117eef3e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ido Yariv Date: Wed, 22 Sep 2010 09:53:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] wl1271: Fix overflow in wl1271_boot_upload_nvs Due to miscalculation of nvs_len, excessive data was sent to the firmware. Fix this by first setting nvs_ptr to point to the first NVS table, and computing the total size of all NVS tables accordingly.
