In save_xstate_epilog(), use __user when type-casting userspace pointers. In setup_sigcontext() and x32_setup_rt_frame(), cast the userspace pointers to 'unsigned long __user *' before writing into them. These pointers are originally '__u32 __user *' or '__u64 __user *', causing sparse to complain when a userspace pointer is written into them. The casts are okay because the pointers always point to pointer-sized values. Thanks to Luc Van Oostenryck and Al Viro for explaining this to me.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
