This patch is to the rtl871x_ioctl_linux.c that fixes up following
warning reported by checkpatch.pl :

- Comparisons should place the constant on the right side of the test

Signed-off-by: Punit Vara <punitv...@gmail.com>

This warning is crap. WTF difference does it make???? The compiler does not care, and any reader with any piece of a brain is not going to be confused!

This patch and all others like it are just meaningless source churning!

This author has made such a royal mess of his patches that I recommend that ALL of them be dropped. In addition, we should continue to drop his changes until he learns how to use git to generate N/M patches, and until he reads the documentation on patch submission.
