3.2.81-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
commit df90ca969035d3f6c95044e272f75bf417b14245 upstream.
Commit ff47ab4ff3cdd "x86: Add 1/2/4/8 byte optimization to 64bit
__copy_{from,to}_user_inatomic" added a "_nocheck" call in between
the copy_to/from_user() and copy_user_generic(). As both the
normal and nocheck versions of theses calls use the proper __user
annotation, a typecast to remove it should not be added.
This causes sparse to spin out the following warnings:
