This patch fixes the calculation of pcc_chan for non-zero id. After the compiler ignores the (unsigned long) cast the pcc_mbox_channels pointer is type-cast and then the type-cast offset is added which results in address outside of the range leading to the kernel crashing. We might add braces and make it: pcc_chan = (struct mbox_chan *) ((unsigned long) pcc_mbox_channels + (id * sizeof(*pcc_chan))); but let's go with array approach here and use id as index. Tested on Juno board.
