3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Arnd Bergmann <a...@arndb.de>
[ Upstream commit 9cc91f212111cdcbefa02dcdb7dd443f224bf52c ]
The improved type-checking version of container_of() triggers a warning for
xchg_xen_ulong, pointing out that 'xen_ulong_t' is unsigned, but atomic64_t
contains a signed value:
drivers/xen/events/events_2l.c: In function 'evtchn_2l_handle_events':
drivers/xen/events/events_2l.c:187:1020: error: call to
'__compiletime_assert_187' declared with attribute error: pointer type mismatch
in container_of()
This adds a cast to work around the warning.

operations.")
Fixes: daa2ac80834d ("kernel.h: handle pointers to arrays better in
container_of()")
