It IS indeed a crap interface, I can't even count on fingers and toes
the times that people did either kunmap() on the address or
kunmap_atomic() on the page. It's virtually there in the first version
of any patch that does kmaps.
It would be REALLY nice if we could catch this at compile time instead
especially when highmem. How about something like this? It'll at least
throw a
lib/scatterlist.c: In function ?sg_miter_stop?:
lib/scatterlist.c:398: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types
lacks a cast
warning to notify of the problem up front.
The more typical error is passing the page into kunmap_atomic(), though.
That one is a bit more tricky, since you can pass in char/void/whatever
pointers. We could mandate that a void * should always be used, then we
could do the same trick there.
Just throwing this out there for comment, I really think we should be
doing something about this finally.
