Background: new aio code is adding __get_user() calls referencing 64 bit quantities (__u64 and __s64).There's lots more architectures which do not support 64-bit get_user() _or_ __get_user(): avr32, blackfin, metag for example, and m68k which has this interesting thing "/* case 8: disabled because gcc-4.1 has a broken typeof \" in its *get_user() implementation.And if you enable it again, you get lots of "warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size", like you mentioned.
Any thoughts? I am still using the version of tha aio tree from next-20160111. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell
