[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] remove useless casting in asm "m" operand

[matthieu castet]

Hi,

this patch remove some useless casting (casting of the same type) in "m" 
operand of asm inline. This caused clang/llvm to produce error 
(http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=3788).

BTW if the type are of different size gcc produce an error, so the 
casting doesn't work [1]

$ cat /tmp/pp.c
int foo()
{
         int a;
         asm("nop"
                         :
                         : "m"((long)(a))
                         );
}

$ gcc -m64  /tmp/pp.c -c -o /tmp/p.o
/tmp/pp.c: In function 'foo':
/tmp/pp.c:4: error: memory input 0 is not directly addressable
