Subject: [PATCH] staging: comedi: cast to (void __user *)
Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2021 11:58:40 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210218062839.32650-1-atulgopinathan@gmail.com> (raw)

Resolve the following sparse warning:
drivers/staging//comedi/comedi_fops.c:2983:41: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
drivers/staging//comedi/comedi_fops.c:2983:41:    expected void [noderef] <asn:1> *uptr
drivers/staging//comedi/comedi_fops.c:2983:41:    got unsigned int *chanlist

cmd->chanlist is of type (unsigned int *) as defined in
"struct comedi_cmd" in file drivers/staging/comedi/comedi.h

The function "ptr_to_compat()" expects argument of type
(void __user *) as defined in include/linux/compat.h
