For 32/64bit correctness, we need to use ulong and not u32 for casting

The output would be stored in a u32 anyway so not sure this actually helps
(see type of val in the git context above).

Yeah. It's funny. The other example of a driver doing these games is
drivers/clk/clk_versaclock.c which uses u64 since it's a 64bit system I
believe.

Just get rid of the cast I guess? udevice_id.data being a ulong already the
compiler should perform the cast in any case and this improves readability?

Without some cast we get:
error: initialization of ‘long unsigned int’ from ‘const struct
cdce9xx_chip_info *’ makes integer from pointer without a cast
[-Werror=int-conversion]


My apologies for the mislead.

It seems like places where it's not needed are where the member is of type void*. The kernel uses this type for of_device_id struct which I'm the most familiar with, but U-Boot's udevice_id actually uses a ulong instead, which thus requires the cast I guess.

That said, I'm just going to drop this patch and make the driver depend
on ARCH_OMAP2PLUS. My gut feeling is this is another one of the cases
where we run in to problems because we don't use phys_addr_t for
physical addresses consistently.


Considering it could be anything, should the type be void* like in the kernel for udevice_id.data maybe? Up to the driver to perform the proper cast when accessing/dereferencing it?

Cheers,
Quentin
