[PATCH] vhost: missing __user tags

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>
Date: 2020-05-15 15:33:58
Also in: kvm, lkml, virtualization
Subsystem: the rest, virtio host (vhost) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, "Michael S. Tsirkin", Jason Wang

sparse warns about converting void * to void __user *. This is not new
but only got noticed now that vhost is built on more systems.
This is just a question of __user tags missing in a couple of places,
so fix it up.

Fixes: f88949138058 ("vhost: introduce O(1) vq metadata cache")
Reported-by: kbuild test robot <redacted>
