Hi Jamie,

It looks like one of the LPAE preparation patches has been merged
(i.e. the one which replaces unsigned long with phys_addr_t) but the
conversion specifier fixes are not yet in mainline, although they do
live in -next.

It's unfortunate that this generates warnings but I don't think you
can avoid the ordering requirements of these patches.

For now, you could try cherry-picking the rest of that patch series
from -next:

ad6b9c9 ARM: 6671/1: LPAE: use phys_addr_t instead of unsigned long in outercache functions
cae6292 ARM: 6672/1: LPAE: use phys_addr_t instead of unsigned long in mapping functions
f60892d ARM: 6673/1: LPAE: use phys_addr_t instead of unsigned long for start of membanks
29a3819 ARM: 6674/1: LPAE: use long long format when printing physical addresses and ptes

These are all in Russell's -devel branch so hopefully they'll find their
way upstream soon.

Thanks for spotting this,

Will
