Re: [PATCH V9 3/6] mm: frontswap: core frontswap functionality

Hey Dan,

I get the following compile warnings:

mm/frontswap.c: In function ‘init_frontswap’:
mm/frontswap.c:264:5: warning: passing argument 4 of ‘debugfs_create_size_t’ from incompatible pointer type

size_t is platform dependent but is generally "unsigned int"
for 32-bit and "unsigned long" for 64-bit.

I think just typecasting these to size_t * would fix it.
