Subject: [net-next 01/14] net/mlx5e: Fix static checker warning of potential pointer math issue
Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2019 21:50:54 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190905215034.22713-2-saeedm@mellanox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190905215034.22713-1-saeedm@mellanox.com>

From: Eran Ben Elisha <eranbe@mellanox.com>

Cited patch have an issue in WARN_ON_ONCE check, with wrong address ranges
are compared. Fix that by changing pointer types from u64* to void*. This
will also make code simpler to read.

In addition mlx5e_hv_vhca_fill_ring_stats can get void pointer, so remove
the unnecessary casting when calling it.

Found by static checker:
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/hv_vhca_stats.c:41 mlx5e_hv_vhca_fill_stats()
warn: potential pointer math issue ('buf' is a u64 pointer)

Fixes: cef35af34d6d ("net/mlx5e: Add mlx5e HV VHCA stats agent")
