This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled x86/asm: Add a missing __iomem annotation in enqcmds() to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: x86-asm-add-a-missing-__iomem-annotation-in-enqcmds.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 04532bb66afa297df6e0eff0403a66d84842abb5 Author: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jan 7 09:45:21 2021 -0700 x86/asm: Add a missing __iomem annotation in enqcmds() [ Upstream commit 5c99720b28381bb400d4f546734c34ddaf608761 ] Add a missing __iomem annotation to address a sparse warning. The caller is expected to pass an __iomem annotated pointer to this function. The current usages send a 64-bytes command descriptor to an MMIO location (portal) on a device for consumption. Also, from the comment in movdir64b(), which also applies to enqcmds(), @__dst must be supplied as an lvalue because this tells the compiler what the object is (its size) the instruction accesses. I.e., not the pointers but what they point to, thus the deref'ing '*'."
