Just saw your patch now, after commenting on the other thread. :)

So you choose not to fix similar usages in RDMA driver
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/qp.c, like:

3204 spc = MLX4_INLINE_ALIGN -
3205 ((unsigned long) (inl + 1) & (MLX4_INLINE_ALIGN - 1));
3206 if (header_size <= spc) {
3207 inl->byte_count = cpu_to_be32(1 << 31 | header_size);
3208 memcpy(inl + 1, sqp->header_buf, header_size);
3209 i = 1;
3210 } else {
3211 inl->byte_count = cpu_to_be32(1 << 31 | spc);
3212 memcpy(inl + 1, sqp->header_buf, spc);
3213
3214 inl = (void *) (inl + 1) + spc;
3215 memcpy(inl + 1, sqp->header_buf + spc, header_size
- spc);

This keeps the patch minimal indeed.

Did you repro the issue and test this solution?
Maybe Josef can also verify it works for him?

No need now for all these (void *) castings.
