This patch is nice and fixes a bunch of warnings.

Normally, I would might you to redo it and remove the no longer needed
casts for ua_off as well...

crystalhd_user_data((void __user *)ua_off, io->add_cdata,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
But we are going to delete this entire driver soon. We may as well
apply yours as is and then delete it or just delete the driver without
applying this cleanup.
