[PATCH] arch: tile: kernel: signal.c: Use explicitly type case "unsigned long *" for register copy
From: Chen Gang
Date: Sat Nov 01 2014 - 08:43:57 EST
setup_sigcontext() wants to copy all kernel related registers to user
space. So let it copy explicitly instead of copying by exceeding member
array border. So let code more clearer and avoid warning.
And for register, better use "unsigned long" instead of "long", too.
The related warning (with allmodconfig under tile):
