Yup, a warning at the very least. > void * doesnt need a cast to a pointer, but res->start is an > integer u32 type, It better not be, else we have a bug already anyway. Pointers are 64-bit on 64-bit archs. [ it turns out res->start is resource_size_t which is set properly as per CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT which itself is set properly as per CONFIG_64BIT, so everything is healthy and fine :-) ] > and therefore we need a cast, no? Yes, void * -> unsigned long cast is always ok, and what we need here.
