x86/fault: Cast an argument to the proper address space in prefetch()
Commit in Fixes uses accessors based on the access mode, i.e., it distinguishes its access if instr carries a user address or a kernel address. Since that commit, sparse complains about passing an argument without __user annotation to get_user(), which expects a pointer of the __user address space: arch/x86/mm/fault.c:152:29: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces) arch/x86/mm/fault.c:152:29: expected void const volatile [noderef] __user *ptr arch/x86/mm/fault.c:152:29: got unsigned char *[assigned] instr Cast instr to __user when accessing user memory. No functional change. No change in the generated object code.
