[PATCH] fs/compat_rw_copy_check_uvector: add missing compat_ptrcall

From: Heiko Carstens
Date: Fri May 28 2010 - 07:40:52 EST


From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>

A call to access_ok is missing a compat_ptr conversion. Introduced with
b83733639a494d5f42fa00a2506563fbd2d3015d "compat: factor out
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector from compat_do_readv_writev"

fs/compat.c: In function 'compat_rw_copy_check_uvector':
fs/compat.c:629: warning: passing argument 1 of '__access_ok' makes pointer from integer without a cast

Probably should go into stable like the original patch.
