[PATCH] staging: comedi: cast to (void __user *)

From: Atul Gopinathan
Date: Thu Feb 18 2021 - 01:45:49 EST


Resolve the following sparse warning:
drivers/staging//comedi/comedi_fops.c:2983:41: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
drivers/staging//comedi/comedi_fops.c:2983:41: expected void [noderef] <asn:1> *uptr
drivers/staging//comedi/comedi_fops.c:2983:41: got unsigned int *chanlist

cmd->chanlist is of type (unsigned int *) as defined in
"struct comedi_cmd" in file drivers/staging/comedi/comedi.h

The function "ptr_to_compat()" expects argument of type
(void __user *) as defined in include/linux/compat.h
