linux/kernel.h: Use parentheses around argument in u64_to_user_ptr()
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.
