Subject: [PATCH] intel_th: fix compile warning

The newly added MSU portion of the intel_th driver causes a harmless
compile warning on 32-bit kernels:

drivers/hwtracing/intel_th/msu.c: In function 'msc_single_to_user':
include/linux/kernel.h:724:17: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast

This changes the code to use min_t() to force the correct type and
avoid that warning, which seems easier than changing the code to
use consistent types everywhere.
