Hi,

This patch fixes the compilation error for UM Linux with linux-2.6.17-rc5.

It complains of using (void *) in arithmetic.

Thanks.

Really?  We often do arithmetic on void*.  Are you using gcc, with standard
kbuild and standard compiler options?

I've never seen any gcc complaints from that piece of code, so I'm 
wondering the same thing.

Ah ! I was using g++ since the kernel had some C++ code in it. Sorry for 
the same.
