Yes.

Hmm, that sentence has too many twists for me! :-D

Let me see if I can clear up the misunderstanding:

    - the "patch from yesterday" (18-09-2021) fixed a complaint from
      sparse regarding symbol 'dump_grep_expression'. This was before
      I had seen this patch email, or the resulting commit 07a7d656.
      Since my "patch from yesterday" is a strict subset of your patch,
      then your patch also fixes the complaint from sparse regarding
      the 'dump_grep_expression' symbol.

    - this patch (commit 07a7d656) causes sparse to complain about the
      symbols 'grep_source_load' and 'grep_source_is_binary'. The new
      patch from me ("timestamped two minutes after ...") also titled
      "grep.c: Fix some sparse warnings" on 19-09-2012 at 7:04 PM, is
      *not* a subset of commit 07a7d656. This patch addresses the new
      sparse warnings regarding 'grep_source_load' and
      'grep_source_is_binary'.

Hopefully that addresses the confusion! ;-)
