Accessing 'reg.write_index' directly triggers a -Waddress-of-packed-member
warning due to potential unaligned pointer access:
perf_test.c:239:38: warning: taking address of packed member 'write_index'
of class or structure 'user_reg' may result in an unaligned pointer value
[-Waddress-of-packed-member]
239 | ASSERT_NE(-1, write(self->data_fd, ®.write_index,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since write(2) works with any alignment. Casting '®.write_index'
explicitly to 'void *' to suppress this warning.

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 reStructuredText 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.
