[PATCH 1/2] mtd: mtdchar.c silence sparse warning

[Harvey Harrison]

The copy_to_user was casting away the address space to get the offset
of the length member.  Use offsetof() instead and add it to the void __user *argp.

drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c:527:23: warning: cast removes address space of expression
drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c:527:23: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c:527:23:    expected void [noderef] <asn:1>*to
drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c:527:23:    got unsigned int *<noident>
