Hi Greg,
As I replied to Andy, this warning has nothing to do with my commit as my
commit doesn't call the involved functions at all.

It has been there for more than one year. but i still send a patch for
this issue
over here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210815032132.14530-1-21cnbao@xxxxxxxxx/T/#u

Note this patch is not fixing the latest commits. It is a general
patch for bitmap.
