kernelci.org reports a new compile warning for old code in the pmcraid
driver:
arch/mips/include/asm/uaccess.h:138:21: warning: passing argument 1 of '__access_ok' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]
The warning got introduced by a cleanup to the access_ok() helper that
requires the argument to be a pointer, where the old version silently
accepts 'unsigned long' arguments as it still does on most other
architectures.
The new behavior in MIPS however seems absolutely sensible, and so far I
could only find one other file with the same issue, so the best solution
seems to be to clean up the pmcraid driver.
This makes the driver consistently use 'void __iomem *' pointers for
passing around the address of the user space ioctl arguments, which gets
rid of the kernelci warning as well as several sparse warnings.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
