3.2.81-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]> commit df90ca969035d3f6c95044e272f75bf417b14245 upstream. Commit ff47ab4ff3cdd "x86: Add 1/2/4/8 byte optimization to 64bit __copy_{from,to}_user_inatomic" added a "_nocheck" call in between the copy_to/from_user() and copy_user_generic(). As both the normal and nocheck versions of theses calls use the proper __user annotation, a typecast to remove it should not be added. This causes sparse to spin out the following warnings: arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different address spaces) arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: expected void const [noderef] <asn:1>*src arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: got void const *<noident> arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different address spaces) arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: expected void const [noderef] <asn:1>*src arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: got void const *<noident> arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different address spaces) arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: expected void const [noderef] <asn:1>*src arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: got void const *<noident> arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different address spaces) arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: expected void const [noderef] <asn:1>*src arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h:207:47: got void const *<noident> Cc: Andi Kleen <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: H.
