An inline could still work
static inline void __user *u64_to_user_ptr(u64 address)
{
return (void __user *)(uintptr_t)address;
}
if the macro was
#define u64_to_user_ptr(x) \
({ \
typecheck(u64, x); \
(u64_to_user_ptr)(x); \
})
the parenthesis around the u64_to_user_ptr
in the macro should prevent expansion.
