Subject: [PATCH 1/2] net/core: remove address space warnings on verify_iovec()
Date: Wed,  8 Sep 2010 22:48:47 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1283953728-15302-1-git-send-email-namhyung@gmail.com> (raw)

move_addr_to_kernel() and copy_from_user() requires their argument
as __user pointer but were missing proper markups. Add it.
This removes following warnings from sparse.

 net/core/iovec.c:44:52: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
 net/core/iovec.c:44:52:    expected void [noderef] <asn:1>*uaddr
 net/core/iovec.c:44:52:    got void *msg_name
 net/core/iovec.c:55:34: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different address spaces)
 net/core/iovec.c:55:34:    expected void const [noderef] <asn:1>*from
 net/core/iovec.c:55:34:    got struct iovec *msg_iov
