Subject: [PATCH 10/12] pseries/plpks: make narrowing conversions explicit
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 23:58:14 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260923182816.151451-11-ssrish@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260923182816.151451-1-ssrish@linux.ibm.com>
Add explicit casts when assigning values from the hcall return buffers
to narrower fields to make the intended conversions clear.
