[PATCH] staging/lustre: echo_client.c - fix sparse warning: cast removes address space of expression

From: Guillermo O. Freschi
Date: Thu Jun 08 2017 - 01:35:45 EST


The function only cares about the value of the pointer, not the contents
of the pointed-to data. Adding a `__force` annotation to the cast
removes this warning.
