Dear Maintainers,

I don't know why the warning here is. I think the return value of dw_pcie_read_dbi, whether u8/u16, will be automatically and forcibly converted to u32.

The following files have similar uses:

drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pci-exynos.c
static int exynos_pcie_rd_own_conf(struct pci_bus *bus, unsigned int devfn,
int where, int size, u32 *val)
{
struct dw_pcie *pci = to_dw_pcie_from_pp(bus->sysdata);

if (PCI_SLOT(devfn))
return PCIBIOS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND;

*val = dw_pcie_read_dbi(pci, where, size);
return PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL;
}

drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-histb.c
static int histb_pcie_rd_own_conf(struct pci_bus *bus, unsigned int devfn,
int where, int size, u32 *val)
{
struct dw_pcie *pci = to_dw_pcie_from_pp(bus->sysdata);

if (PCI_SLOT(devfn))
return PCIBIOS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND;

*val = dw_pcie_read_dbi(pci, where, size);
return PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL;
}

drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-kirin.c
static int kirin_pcie_rd_own_conf(struct pci_bus *bus, unsigned int devfn,
int where, int size, u32 *val)
{
struct dw_pcie *pci = to_dw_pcie_from_pp(bus->sysdata);

if (PCI_SLOT(devfn))
return PCIBIOS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND;

*val = dw_pcie_read_dbi(pci, where, size);
return PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL;
}


drivers/pci/access.c
int pci_generic_config_read(struct pci_bus *bus, unsigned int devfn,
int where, int size, u32 *val)
{
void __iomem *addr;

addr = bus->ops->map_bus(bus, devfn, where);
if (!addr)
return PCIBIOS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND;

if (size == 1)
*val = readb(addr);
else if (size == 2)
*val = readw(addr);
else
*val = readl(addr);

return PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pci_generic_config_read);




May I ignore this warning? Could it be that I misunderstood something?
