[PATCH] staging: vt6655: fix sparse warning: argument type

[Eddie Kovsky]

Fixes following warning generated by sparse:

drivers/staging/vt6655/baseband.c:2180:45: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
drivers/staging/vt6655/baseband.c:2180:45:    expected struct vnt_private *priv
drivers/staging/vt6655/baseband.c:2180:45:    got void [noderef] <asn:2>*dwIoBase

Compile tested on next-20141219.

[...]

The change looks right.  BBbWriteEmbedded use priv to get dwIoBase.
And every other call to BBbWriteEmbedded uses the priv argument.

   dwIoBase = priv->PortOffset;

So how did this mistake get in there?

It looks like it was simply missed in commit 377f5bc00f7e1.  All the
ones before and after were changed, but not this one.

Interestingly, if you go back to this commit and compile it, no error
is generated unless you enable sparse checks.

Yes it was missed probably because it looks like it commented out.

Good catch Eddie.

As my device does not this baseband type I won't encounter the bug.

Greg, this needs to go into 3.19.

Thanks
