V1 -> V2: Added missing 'Signed-off-by'
Fixes:
fs/dax.c: In function 'dax_iomap_iter':
fs/dax.c:1147:44: error: passing argument 1 of 'dax_iomap_sector' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Werror=discarded-qualifiers]
const sector_t sector = dax_iomap_sector(iomap, pos);
^~~~~
fs/dax.c:1009:17: note: expected 'struct iomap *' but argument is of type 'const struct iomap *'
static sector_t dax_iomap_sector(struct iomap *iomap, loff_t pos)
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The issue was introduced by the cherry-pick of commit 8df4919cb921
("fsdax: switch dax_iomap_rw to use iomap_iter")
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/fs/dax.c?h=v5.10.246&id=8df4919cb921b28809d05feae3e98dc5d8b48146
The upstream change made callers pass a const struct iomap *:
const struct iomap *iomap = &iomi->iomap;
but dax_iomap_sector() still expected a mutable pointer:
static sector_t dax_iomap_sector(struct iomap *iomap, loff_t pos)
