And in general avoid the overly > long lines. If I don't add this cast, the compiler complains with the follow error: drivers/nvme/host/ioctl.c: In function ‘nvme_uring_cmd_io’: drivers/nvme/host/ioctl.c:555:37: error: initialization of ‘const struct nvme_uring_cmd *’ from incompatible pointer type ‘const __u8 *’ {aka ‘const unsigned char *’} [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types] const struct nvme_uring_cmd *cmd = ioucmd->sqe->cmd;
