Thanks for the patch! We already have a patch that fixes sparse warnings (including these) queued up. See: https://github.com/jpirko/linux_mlxsw/commit/4800ed89f5da55a42a173d5cf9225d4fbb8a96bd But since we already have one patch under review we've yet to submit it. https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/670846/ Do you mind dropping this and instead let our patch (with the rest of the fixes) go through? Thanks, Ido.
