H A D | copypage.c | 921d161f Tue Apr 19 22:04:13 CDT 2022 Tong Tiangen <tongtiangen@huawei.com> arm64: fix types in copy_highpage()
In copy_highpage() the `kto` and `kfrom` local variables are pointers to struct page, but these are used to hold arbitrary pointers to kernel memory . Each call to page_address() returns a void pointer to memory associated with the relevant page, and copy_page() expects void pointers to this memory.
This inconsistency was introduced in commit 2563776b41c3 ("arm64: mte: Tags-aware copy_{user_,}highpage() implementations") and while this doesn't appear to be harmful in practice it is clearly wrong.
Correct this by making `kto` and `kfrom` void pointers.
