[PATCH] IB/core: avoid 32-bit warning

[PATCH] IB/core: avoid 32-bit warning

[Arnd Bergmann]

The INIT_UDATA() macro requires a pointer or unsigned long argument for
both input and output buffer, and all callers had a cast from when
the code was merged until a recent restructuring, so now we get

core/uverbs_cmd.c: In function 'ib_uverbs_create_cq':
core/uverbs_cmd.c:1481:66: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]

This makes the code behave as before by adding back the cast to
unsigned long.

Would it make sense to cast inside INIT_UDATA() and not have callers
worry about it?

If we want to do this properly, INIT_UDATA should be converted into a function
call that has the right types.

My patch doesn't try to do that here, it just restores the code to how it
was for the past 10 years.

It's ... complicated. See INIT_UDATA_BUF_OR_NULL().

Awayway, I have patch to do the opposite, eg. explicitly cast u64 value
to (void __user *)(unsigned long) in the caller function instead, as it
allows some safer / new operations on the response buffer.

I haven't seen this oether patch that Yann is talking about, so I've
taken this one.
