[MTD] mtdchar.c silence sparse warning
The copy_to_user was casting away the address space to get the offset of the length member. Use offsetof() instead and add it to the void __user *argp. drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c:527:23: warning: cast removes address space of expression drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c:527:23: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces) drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c:527:23: expected void [noderef] <asn:1>*to drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c:527:23: got unsigned int *<noident> Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison <harvey.harrison@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
