Commit Message

While experimenting with older compiler versions, I ran
into a warning that no longer shows up on gcc-4.8 or newer:

drivers/media/platform/s3c-camif/camif-capture.c: In function '__camif_subdev_try_format':
drivers/media/platform/s3c-camif/camif-capture.c:1265:25: error: array subscript is below array bounds

This is an off-by-one bug, leading to an access before the start of the
array, while newer compilers silently assume this undefined behavior
cannot happen and leave the loop at index 0 if no other entry matches.

Since the code is not only wrong, but also has no effect besides the
out-of-bounds access, this patch just removes it.

I found an existing gcc bug for it and added a reduced version
of the function there.

Interesting finding... the function needs to ensure mf->code is set 
to one of supported values by the driver, so instead of removing 
how about changing the above line to:

	if (i < 0)
		mf->code = camif_mbus_formats[0];

?

That would still have one of the two out-of-bounds accesses ;-)

maybe this

for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(camif_mbus_formats); i++)
        if (camif_mbus_formats[i] == mf->code)
               break;

if (i == ARRAY_SIZE(camif_mbus_formats))
       mf->code = camif_mbus_formats[0];
