Huh. I assumed crc32_le gave us the result in little endian, but I guess that's wrong.
I've attached another patch which basically does the same thing but adds some sparse bitwise annotations to make things clear. Also, it has a signed-off-by line. :) d80211: fix WEP on big endian cpus This patch fixes the endian issues with the ICV in WEP, as pointed out by David Kimdon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, and uses __le32 where appropriate to make things clear.
