Pan Taixi 4afa9d57ed tracing: Fix compilation warning on arm32
commit 2fbdb6d8e03b70668c0876e635506540ae92ab05 upstream.

On arm32, size_t is defined to be unsigned int, while PAGE_SIZE is
unsigned long. This hence triggers a compilation warning as min()
asserts the type of two operands to be equal. Casting PAGE_SIZE to size_t
solves this issue and works on other target architectures as well.

Compilation warning details:

kernel/trace/trace.c: In function 'tracing_splice_read_pipe':
./include/linux/minmax.h:20:28: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
  (!!(sizeof((typeof(x) *)1 == (typeof(y) *)1)))
                            ^
./include/linux/minmax.h:26:4: note: in expansion of macro '__typecheck'
   (__typecheck(x, y) && __no_side_effects(x, y))
    ^~~~~~~~~~~

...

kernel/trace/trace.c:6771:8: note: in expansion of macro 'min'
        min((size_t)trace_seq_used(&iter->seq),

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
