Currently, address spaces in warnings are displayed as '<asn:X>' with
'X' being the address space's arbitrary number.
But since sparse v0.6.0-rc1 (late December 2018), sparse allows you to
define the address spaces using an identifier instead of a number. This
identifier is then directly used in the warnings.
So, use the identifiers '__user', '__iomem', '__percpu' & '__rcu' for
the corresponding address spaces. The default address space, __kernel,
being not displayed in warnings, stays defined as '0'.
With this change, warnings that used to be displayed as:
cast removes address space '<asn:1>' of expression
... void [noderef] <asn:2> *
will now be displayed as:
cast removes address space '__user' of expression
... void [noderef] __iomem *
This also moves the __kernel annotation to be the first one, since it is
quite different from the others because it's the default one, and so:
- it's never displayed
- it's normally not needed, nor in type annotations, nor in cast
between address spaces. The only time it's needed is when it's
combined with a typeof to express "the same type as this one but
without the address space"
- it can't be defined with a name, '0' must be used.
So, it seemed strange to me to have it in the middle of the other
ones.
