The NIU ethernet driver intentionally stores a page struct pointer on
top of the "mapping" field. Whitelist this case:
drivers/net/ethernet/sun/niu.c: In function ‘niu_rx_pkt_ignore’:
drivers/net/ethernet/sun/niu.c:3402:10: note: found mismatched ssa struct
pointer types: ‘struct page’ and ‘struct address_space’
*link = (struct page *) page->mapping;
