Use parentheses around uses of the argument in u64_to_user_ptr() to ensure that the cast doesn't apply to part of the argument. There are existing uses of the macro of the form u64_to_user_ptr(A + B) which expands to (void __user *)(uintptr_t)A + B (the cast applies to the first operand of the addition, the addition is a pointer addition). This happens to still work as intended, the semantic difference doesn't cause a difference in behavior. But I want to use u64_to_user_ptr() with a ternary operator in the argument, like so: u64_to_user_ptr(A ? B : C) This currently doesn't work as intended.

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.
