[WATCHDOG] wdt285: fix sparse warnings
The wdt285.c watchdog driver is producing a number of sparse errors due to missing __user attributes to calls to put_user and copy_to_user, as well as in the prototype of watchdog_write. wdt285.c:144:21: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces) wdt285.c:144:21: expected void [noderef] <asn:1>*to wdt285.c:144:21: got void *<noident> wdt285.c:150:9: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces) wdt285.c:150:9: expected int const [noderef] <asn:1>*register __p wdt285.c:150:9: got int *<noident> wdt285.c:159:9: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces) wdt285.c:159:9: expected int const [noderef] <asn:1>*register __p wdt285.c:159:9: got int *<noident> wdt285.c:174:9: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces) wdt285.c:174:9: expected int const [noderef] <asn:1>*register __p wdt285.c:174:9: got int *<noident> wdt285.c:183:12: warning: incorrect type in initializer (incompatible argument 2 (different address spaces)) wdt285.c:183:12: expected int ( *write )( ... ) wdt285.c:183:12: got int ( static [toplevel] *<noident> )( ... ) Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
