| |
generic_load_microcode() deals with a pointer that can be either a kernel pointer or a user pointer. Pass it around as a __user pointer so that it can't be dereferenced accidentally while its address space is unknown. Use explicit casts to convert between __user and __kernel to inform the checker that these address space conversions are intentional.
