Commit Message

This patch fixes following warnings:

1. sparse: incorrect type in assignment (different base types)
Fix: change to __le32 type.
2. sparse: cast removes address space '__iomem' of expression
Fix: change to force cast.

Wouldn't it be better to keep the iomem marker and then use readb
on sram_buffer?

The whole point of iomem is to prevent you from directly
dereferencing that memory.  So casting it away to remove the
warning simply defeats its purpose.

If you're worried about the overhead of readb perhaps you can
look into readb_relaxed after considering the effects of the
barriers.

Cheers,
