The declaration of the local variable destination1 in pm80xx_pci_mem_copy() as a pointer to a u32 results in the sparse warning: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different base types) expected unsigned int [usertype] got restricted __le32 [usertype] Furthermore, the destination" argument of pm80xx_pci_mem_copy() is wrongly declared with the const attribute. Fix both problems by changing the type of the "destination" argument to "__le32 *" and use this argument directly inside the pm80xx_pci_mem_copy() function, thus removing the need for the destination1 local variable.
