It is just 4 lines, and the cast was wrong (it takes away volatile from
a pointer which is passed into a function that takes a volatile!).

So instead of fixing the bug, we should silence the warnings, just
because there is a slight chance that there will be a conflict in
a future import? I prefer to ask upstream to fix it, together with
the other bug I found the other day.
