mailbox: mailbox-test: Correctly repair Sparse warnings
Kbuild test robot reported some Sparse warnings to the tune of:
sparse: incorrect type in argument 6 (different address spaces)
expected void const *buf
got void [noderef] <asn:2>*mmio
This was due to passing variables tagged with the Sparse cookie
'__iomem' through into memcpy() and print_hex_dump() without
adequate protection or casting. These issues were fixed in a
previous patch suppressing the warnings, but the issue is indeed
still present.
This patch fixes the warnings in the correct way, i.e. by using
the purposely authored memcpy_{from,to}io() derivatives in the
memcpy() case and casting the memory address to (void *) and
forcing Sparse to ignore to ignore it in the print_hex_dump()
case [NB: This is also what the memcpy() derivatives do].
