This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/bridge: ps8640: Fix size mismatch warning w/ len to the 6.6-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: drm-bridge-ps8640-fix-size-mismatch-warning-w-len.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 60f7fe0dba377efda73d4153e89f62b6df1869d6 Author: Douglas Anderson <dianders@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Dec 18 09:04:54 2023 -0800 drm/bridge: ps8640: Fix size mismatch warning w/ len [ Upstream commit 35ba6bd582cf926a082296b7e9a876ec81136cb1 ] After commit 26195af57798 ("drm/bridge: ps8640: Drop the ability of ps8640 to fetch the EDID"), I got an error compiling: error: comparison of distinct pointer types ('typeof (len) *' (aka 'unsigned int *') and 'typeof (msg->size) *' (aka 'unsigned long *')) [-Werror,-Wcompare-distinct-pointer-types] Fix it by declaring the `len` as size_t. The above error only shows up on downstream kernels without commit d03eba99f5bf ("minmax: allow min()/max()/clamp() if the arguments have the same signedness."), but since commit 26195af57798 ("drm/bridge: ps8640: Drop the ability of ps8640 to fetch the EDID") is a "Fix" that will likely be backported it seems nice to make it easy. ...plus it's more correct to declare `len` as size_t anyway.
