Subject: [PATCH 8/8] pmcraid: Pass pointers to access_ok(), not integers
Date: Wed, 21 Dec 2011 01:37:26 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1324431446.2844.155.camel@deadeye> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1324430940.2844.144.camel@deadeye>

Most architectures define access_ok() as a macro that casts its
argument such that an argument of type unsigned long will be accepted
without complaint.  However, the proper type is void *, and passing
unsigned long results in a warning on sparc64.
