The 'data' field in struct comedi_insn is an unsigned int __user *.
The comedi core copies this data to kernel space before passing it
on to a drivers insn_bits/insn_config method.
kcomedilib provides an interface for external kernel modules to
use the comedi drivers. This interface creates a comedi_insn
that is then passed to the comedi drivers insn_bits/insn_config
method. Unfortunately, kcomedilib is using the comedi_insn 'data'
field directly which results in some sparse warnings:
warning: incorrect type in argument 4 (different address spaces)
expected unsigned int *<noident>
got unsigned int [noderef] <asn:1>*data
warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces)
expected unsigned int [noderef] <asn:1>*[addressable] [assigned] data
got unsigned int *<noident>
Fix this by passing the kernel data directly, as a separate parameter,
instead of trying to put in into the comedi_insn 'data' field. This is
how the comedi core handles the data from user space.
