Subject: fs/binfmt_em86.c: fix incompatible pointer type
Since the -Wincompatible-pointer-types is reported as error, alpha
doesn't build anymore. Let's fix it in a minimal way.
fs/binfmt_em86.c:73:35: error: passing argument 2 of `copy_strings_kernel' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
retval = copy_strings_kernel(1, &i_arg, bprm);
^ ^
fs/binfmt_em86.c:77:34: error: passing argument 2 of `copy_strings_kernel' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
retval = copy_strings_kernel(1, &i_name, bprm);
