drm/cma-helper: Turn to_drm_gem_cma_obj() into a macro
This allows the argument to be a const.
The other option was to keep it an inline function and make the argument
a const:
static inline struct drm_gem_cma_object *
to_drm_gem_cma_obj(const struct drm_gem_object *gem_obj)
{
return container_of(gem_obj, struct drm_gem_cma_object, base);
}
This will happily return a non-const pointer to the drm_gem_cma_object
based on a const pointer to the contained drm_gem_object, thus creating
const-safety problems.
There was an attempt to fix the problem in the container_of() macro
itself (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/5/19/381) but the patch seems to
have fallen through the cracks. It would require turning this inline
function into a macro.
By making this a macro now, we will benefit from a possible future
enhancement of container_of(). We don't loose type checking by doing
this, container_of() takes care of that.
