From 212dd8477653fe72c2a6a99143cd662f6430cf4f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Catalin Marinas Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 15:51:42 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Silence sparse warnings caused by the type casting in (cmp)xchg The arm64 xchg/cmpxchg() wrappers cast the arguments to (unsigned long) prior to invoking the static inline functions implementing the operation. Some restrictive type annotations (e.g. __bitwise) lead to sparse warnings like below: sparse warnings: (new ones prefixed by >>) fs/crypto/bio.c:67:17: sparse: sparse: cast from restricted blk_status_t >> fs/crypto/bio.c:67:17: sparse: sparse: cast to restricted blk_status_t Force the casting in the arm64 xchg/cmpxchg() wrappers to silence sparse.
