Message-ID: <20210217165907.9777-1-atulgopinathan@gmail.com> (raw)
Resolve the following warning generated by sparse:
drivers/staging//comedi/comedi_fops.c:2956:23: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces)
drivers/staging//comedi/comedi_fops.c:2956:23: expected unsigned int *chanlist
drivers/staging//comedi/comedi_fops.c:2956:23: got void [noderef] <asn:1> *
compat_ptr() has a return type of "void __user *"
as defined in "include/linux/compat.h"
