Revert "ALSA: firewire-lib: change structure member with proper type"
This reverts commit
6b7e95d1336b9eb0d4c6db190ce756480496bd13. This commit
is based on a concern about value of the given parameter. It's expected
to be ORed value with some enumeration-constants, thus often it can not be
one of the enumeration-constants. I understood that this is out of
specification and causes implementation-dependent issues.
In C language specification, enumerated type can be interpreted as an
integer type, in which all of enumeration-constants in corresponding
enumerator-list can be stored. Implementations can select one of char,
signed int and unsigned int as its type, and this selection is
implementation-dependent.
In GCC, a signed integer is selected when at least one of
enumeration-constants has negative value, else an unsigned integer is
selected. This behaviour can be switched by -fshort-enums to short type.
Anyway, the type can be decided after scanning all of
enumeration-constants.
Totally, there's no rules to constrain the value of enumerated type to
be one of enumeration-constants. In short, in enumerated type, decision
of actual type for the type is the most important and
enumeration-constants are just used for the decision, thus it's permitted
to have an integer value in a range of enumeration-constants. In our case,
actual type for the type is currently deterministic to be either char or
unsigned int. Under GCC, it's unsigned int.
