The level1 PBL info address is stored as u64. This requires casting
through a uinptr_t before used as a pointer type.
And this leads to sparse warning such as this when uinptr_t is missing:
drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma/hw.c: In function 'irdma_destroy_virt_aeq':
drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma/hw.c:579:23: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
579 | dma_addr_t *pg_arr = (dma_addr_t *)aeq->palloc.level1.addr;
This can be fixed using an intermediate uintptr_t, but rather it is better
to fix the structure irdm_pble_info to store the address as u64* and the
VA it is assigned in irdma_chunk as a void*. This greatly reduces the
casting on this address.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
