>From the current kernel build, the following errors are 
comming from drivers/mtd/redboot.c:

In function 'parse_redboot_partitions':
107: warning: passing argument 1 of '__swab32s' from incompatible pointer type
108: warning: passing argument 1 of '__swab32s' from incompatible pointer type
109: warning: passing argument 1 of '__swab32s' from incompatible pointer type

113: warning: passing argument 1 of '__swab32s' from incompatible pointer type

I belive the best way to fix this is to change the
`unsigned long` declerations in `struct fis_image_desc`
to __u32, which is what swab32s() expects to see, and
is more specific that `unsigned long`.

Should I commit the following patch to the CVS?
