This is one of many instances:
./include/linux/pagemap.h:554:10: warning: value size does not match register size specified by the constraint and modifier [-Wasm-operand-widths]
return __put_user(0, end);
^
./arch/arm64/include/asm/uaccess.h:338:2: note: expanded from macro '__put_user'
__put_user_err((x), (ptr), __pu_err); \
^
./arch/arm64/include/asm/uaccess.h:326:38: note: expanded from macro '__put_user_err'
__put_user_asm("str", "sttr", "%", __pu_val, (ptr), \
^
./include/linux/pagemap.h:554:10: note: use constraint modifier "w"
./arch/arm64/include/asm/uaccess.h:338:2: note: expanded from macro '__put_user'
__put_user_err((x), (ptr), __pu_err); \
^
./arch/arm64/include/asm/uaccess.h:326:34: note: expanded from macro '__put_user_err'
__put_user_asm("str", "sttr", "%", __pu_val, (ptr), \
^
'end' is a char pointer, it is not clear to me why we would end up in
the width == 8 branch.
