Subject: [PATCH 4.14 158/237] bcache: explicity type cast in bset_bkey_last()

From: Coly Li <colyli@...e.de>

[ Upstream commit 7c02b0055f774ed9afb6e1c7724f33bf148ffdc0 ]

In bset.h, macro bset_bkey_last() is defined as,
    bkey_idx((struct bkey *) (i)->d, (i)->keys)

Parameter i can be variable type of data structure, the macro always
works once the type of struct i has member 'd' and 'keys'.

bset_bkey_last() is also used in macro csum_set() to calculate the
checksum of a on-disk data structure. When csum_set() is used to
calculate checksum of on-disk bcache super block, the parameter 'i'
data type is struct cache_sb_disk. Inside struct cache_sb_disk (also in
struct cache_sb) the member keys is __u16 type. But bkey_idx() expects
unsigned int (a 32bit width), so there is problem when sending
parameters via stack to call bkey_idx().

Sparse tool from Intel 0day kbuild system reports this incompatible
problem. bkey_idx() is part of user space API, so the simplest fix is
to cast the (i)->keys to unsigned int type in macro bset_bkey_last().
