 The coding style in the kernel has nothing to do with gcc or your 
 application... That's like saying you need salt on the potatos in 
 Germany because there are rocks in the carrot fields of France.

If you don't understand why is is bad style to use something other than
'caddr_t' or 'void *' for a pointer in a public interface, you better
should not try to comment on it.

WTF is caddr_t? Certainly neither C nor POSIX.

So much as to comments...

Great, I have to remember this when I put salt on my potatos, here in
Italy...

TREWOFFE (n.)
A very thick and heavy drift of snow balanced precariously on the
edoge of a door porch waiting for what it judges to be the correct
moment to fall. From the ancient Greek legend 'The Treewofe of
Damocles'.
