If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 260b31643691e8a58683a4ccc3bdf7abfd86f54a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2015 15:14:23 +0100 Subject: mmc: dw_mmc: use resource_size_t to store physical address From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> commit 260b31643691e8a58683a4ccc3bdf7abfd86f54a upstream. The dw_mmc driver stores the physical address of the MMIO registers in a pointer, which requires the use of type casts, and is actually broken if anyone ever has this device on a 32-bit SoC in registers above 4GB. Gcc warns about this possibility when the driver is built with ARM LPAE enabled: mmc/host/dw_mmc.c: In function 'dw_mci_edmac_start_dma': mmc/host/dw_mmc.c:702:17: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size cfg.dst_addr = (dma_addr_t)(host->phy_regs + fifo_offset); ^ mmc/host/dw_mmc-pltfm.c: In function 'dw_mci_pltfm_register': mmc/host/dw_mmc-pltfm.c:63:19: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size host->phy_regs = (void *)(regs->start); This changes the code to use resource_size_t, which gets rid of the warning, the bug and the useless casts.
