Subject: [PATCH v2] acpica: fix -Wnull-pointer-arithmetic warnings

Clang generate quite a few of those warnings.

This is because pointer arithmetic on a pointer not pointing to an array
is an undefined behavior (C11 6.5.6, constraint 8). Fix it by just
casting the corresponding pointers using ACPI_CAST_PTR() and skip the

We've taken the change to ACPI_TO_POINTER.
Thanks,

The standards committee as smoking dope again :-)
If that is enforced as a compiler warning/error a lot of code 'breaks'.
Anything that does:
struct foo *foo = ...;
struct bar *bar = (void *)(foo + 1);
suddenly becomes 'invalid'.

The clang will generate a warning only if “foo" is NULL.

I am a bit confused here. I saw the commit in the acpia repo.

https://github.com/acpica/acpica/commit/02bbca5070e42d298c9b824300aa0eb8a082d797

but how does that change will go into the linux kernel? Suppose Rafael will need
to pick it up manually?
