Hi,
 yes, You are right. we are getting this warning.
drivers/spi/spi-davinci.c: In function ‘davinci_spi_probe’:
drivers/spi/spi-davinci.c:919:7: warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast [enabled by default]
   ret = spi_davinci_get_pdata(pdev, dspi);

We should return 'int' in both the case.

 Thanks

And you don't get a warning for spi_davinci_probe() doing

     int ret;

     ret = spi_davinci_get_pdata(pdev, dspi);

?

spi_davinci_get_pdata() returns int if CONFIG_OF, else a pointer.
I guess it always should return int instead.

It's been like this since the function was introduced, in commit
aae7147dfc522062 ("spi/davinci: add OF support for the spi controller").
