I wasn't getting much of a response on lkml to this, so maybe netdev will
be more helpful :)
thanks

Subject: proper way to deal with a sparse warning
I'm getting the following sparse warning:
drivers/net/gianfar_mii.c:165:16: warning: incorrect type in
assignment (different address spaces)
drivers/net/gianfar_mii.c:165:16: expected void *priv
drivers/net/gianfar_mii.c:165:16: got struct gfar_mii [noderef] *
[assigned] regs<asn:2>
This is line 165 of gianfar_mii.c:
new_bus->priv = regs;
new_bus->priv is of type void *. regs is of type struct gfar_mii
__iomem *.
Is it acceptable to do the following:
new_bus->priv = (void __force *)regs;
