3.16.49-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> commit 9cc91f212111cdcbefa02dcdb7dd443f224bf52c upstream. The improved type-checking version of container_of() triggers a warning for xchg_xen_ulong, pointing out that 'xen_ulong_t' is unsigned, but atomic64_t contains a signed value: drivers/xen/events/events_2l.c: In function 'evtchn_2l_handle_events': drivers/xen/events/events_2l.c:187:1020: error: call to '__compiletime_assert_187' declared with attribute error: pointer type mismatch in container_of() This adds a cast to work around the warning.
