If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Christian Borntraeger commit c5b19946eb76c67566aae6a84bf2b10ad59295ea upstream. Commit 927609d622a3 ("kernel: tighten rules for ACCESS ONCE") results in sparse warnings like "Using plain integer as NULL pointer" - Let's add a type cast to the dummy assignment. To avoid warnings lik "sparse: warning: cast to restricted __hc32" we also use __force on that cast.
