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.
