[PATCH 6/8] uio: Pass pointers to virt_to_page(), not integers

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Tue Dec 20 2011 - 20:36:40 EST


Most architectures define virt_to_page() as a macro that casts its
argument such that an argument of type unsigned long will be accepted
without complaint. However, the proper type is void *, and passing
unsigned long results in a warning on MIPS.

It might be clearer to assign:

addr = (void *)((unsigned long)idev->info->mem[mi].addr + offset);

since arithmetic on void pointers is weird. Either way should work though.

Ben.
