[PATCH] dma: bcm2835: Fix compiler warning on arm64.

From: Eric Anholt <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-04 02:23:37

The min() macro was complaining about mismatched types.  The max len
is at most SZ_1G, so we can just put it in an unsigned int.

Vinod, if you ack it, this one would be nice to be able to merge
through the -soc tree, so that when we enable of arm64 builds of this
driver we don't introduce a new compiler warning.

bcm2835_dma_max_frame_length() returns size_t. so this should also add a
complain about type mismatch as well!

Also, wouldn't it be better to make both args of min()  as size_t then?

Assignments from different sizes don't produce warnings.  The other arg
of the min() is a u32, and this value is known to be < u32, so I don't
see the problem.  I could start promoting u32s to size_ts instead, but I
don't know where that would end.
