Sure. I think there's only this instance at the moment.

This doesn't compile because `paddr` is usize, and
`bindings::phys_addr_t` is u64 (on my machine, which is aarch64).

This also doesn't compile: "the trait `core::convert::From<u32>` is
not implemented for `usize`". Upstream has ambitions of running on
16-bit, I guess :)

As above, doesn't compile.
