hwmon: (ftsteutates) Fix potential memory access error
Using set_bit() to set a bit in an integer is not a good idea, since the function expects an unsigned long as argument, which can be 64 bit wide. Coverity reports this problem as >>> CID 1364488: Memory - illegal accesses (INCOMPATIBLE_CAST) >>> Pointer "&ret" points to an object whose effective type is "int" >>> (32 bits, signed) but is dereferenced as a wider "unsigned +long" (64 bits, unsigned). This may lead to memory corruption. 245 set_bit(1, (unsigned long *)&ret); Just use BIT instead.
