fs/proc/base.c: In function 'proc_lookupfdinfo':
fs/proc/base.c:1584: warning: passing argument 3 of 'proc_lookupfd_common' from incompatible pointer type
fs/proc/base.c: In function 'proc_readfdinfo':
fs/proc/base.c:1590: warning: passing argument 4 of 'proc_readfd_common' from incompatible pointer type
