[PATCH v2 06/40] cris/uaccess: fix sparse errors

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>
Date: 2015-01-06 15:44:06
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

virtio wants to read bitwise types from userspace using get_user.  At the
moment this triggers sparse errors, since the value is passed through an
integer.

Fix that up using __force.
