It's not mandatory to have the casting with no __iomem, but wouldn't doing like this: + shift = (ssize_t __iomem)src & 0x3; be looking weird? Really, is there a good way to somehow extract the first two bits of a __iomem pointer without getting the sparse warning? -Sergey > > Perhaps if you find an elegant wait to avoid the warning it would be > nice, otherwise I guess we'll let it aside as a false positive. > > Cheers, > Miquèl
