net: wimax: i2400m: control.c: Cleaning up conjunction always evaluates to false

Logical conjunction always evaluates to false:  minor < 2 && minor > 1
I guess what you wanted is rather: minor > 2 || minor < 1

This was partly found using a static code analysis program called cppcheck.

perhaps clearer as:

	if (!(minor == I2400M_HDIv_MINOR || minor == I2400M_HDIv_MINOR_2))

Hi

Thought about it, and now it becomes clearer.
But if someone decides to change the X or Y to a larger range than 1
and 2, it will not be correct ..?
Or, will it not happen?

But I'm no expert on this code :)
I just wanted to point out the logical error.


Best regards
