[PATCH] staging: vt6655: fix sparse warning "cast removes address space of expression"

From: James A Shackleford
Date: Sat May 31 2014 - 20:09:36 EST


Add missing __user macro to second parameter of ethtool_ioctl().
This removes the need for the offending (void *) cast of the user space pointer
rq->ifr_data.
