Code that was added back in 2.6.38 has an obvious overflow when accessing a static array, and at the time it was added only a code comment was put in front of it as a reminder to have it reviewed properly. This has not happened, but gcc-6 now points to the specific overflow: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/eeprom.c: In function 'ath9k_hw_get_gain_boundaries_pdadcs': drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/eeprom.c:483:44: error: array subscript is above array bounds [-Werror=array-bounds] maxPwrT4[i] = data_9287[idxL].pwrPdg[i][4]; ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~ It turns out that the correct array length exists in the local 'intercepts' variable of this function, so we can just use that instead of hardcoding '4', so this patch changes all three instances to use that variable. The other two instances were already correct, but it's more consistent this way.
