The compiler behavior has changed since 4.0.1, but I think the new behavior is correct. I am blaming the __get_user macro in include/asm-mips/uaccess.h. It should be possible to fix it there. The alternative is to hack up include/linux/pagemap.h.

__get_user() is unhappy, with tpyes that are "const". It uses __typeof()
to create a local variable that it wants to write to. I've intended to
have offer up a patch by now, but, too manyunexpected thing have happened in the firs thalf of this week.
