[PATCH] fs: compat: Remove warning from COMPATIBLE_IOCTL

[PATCH] fs: compat: Remove warning from COMPATIBLE_IOCTL

[Matthias Kaehlcke]

From: Mark Charlebois <charlebm@gmail.com>

cmd in COMPATIBLE_IOCTL is always a u32, so cast it so there isn't a
warning about an overflow in XFORM.

Ping, any feedback on this change?

The patch looks correct to me,

One minor comment on the patch: when you address a warning in a patch,
it helps to put the compiler warning output into the changelog.

Aside from that, I see that you are upstreaming a number of clang
related patches. I actually have a longer series of clang patches that
I took from llvmlinux and hacked up to the point where I could
build ARM randconfig kernels without any warnings or errors.
If you are interested, I can separate the clang patches from my normal
randconfig build tree and upload the git tree for you to look at and
cherry-pick further patches.

Thanks, I added it initially and then wondered if it is too much
noise. Will take it into account in the future.

Sure, that would be interesting, though I won't promise to take up
everything :)

I see now that almost all the patches I did have been picked up in the
meantime, so I'm sure you already have most of the remaining contents
as they come from the old llvmlinux project. For reference, I've uploaded
my set to

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground.git
next-20170420+llvmlinux

This is rebased from the middle of a larger series, so there might be
problems I introduce. Just have a look to see what you can use.

Yeah, I picked a subset of the llvmlinux patches from different
sources.
