[PATCH v12 1/9] iomap: Fix sparse endian check warnings

From: Logan Gunthorpe <logang@deltatee.com>
Date: 2018-03-16 15:48:44
Also in: linux-arch, lkml
Subsystem: library code, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Linus Torvalds

Warnings of the form:

lib/iomap.c:84:9: warning: cast to restricted __be16

Are found when running sparse checker with:

make C=2 CF=-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__

This patch casts them with __force to suppress the warnings.

Also, it looks like the wrong conversion function was used in
the mmio_writeXXbe macros: 'val' is a cpu value to be written to
a big endian register. Therefore cpu_to_beXX should have been used
instead of beXX_to_cpu. Both are equivalent, functionally, but have
different meanings. So there was no real bug just confusion
for people reading the code and the sparse endian check.
