Matthew,

Due to some unidentified error still not able to catch this warning
in (X86_64 + sparse) compilation. It is constantly showing below error.

Documents/linux-4.17-rc7$ make C=2 -j4 mm/gup.o

CHK     include/config/kernel.release

But able to capture it in (powerpc + sparse) compilation.
I will fix it in v2.

/Documents/linux-4.17-rc7$ make C=2 ARCH=powerpc

  CC      mm/gup.o


Also Sparse is throwing below warning ->

/Documents/linux-4.17-rc7$ make C=2 ARCH=powerpc
CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- mm/hugetlb.o

 CHK     include/config/kernel.release
  CHK     include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
  CHK     include/generated/utsrelease.h
  CHK     include/generated/bounds.h

  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CHECK   scripts/mod/empty.c
  CHK     scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.h
  CHECK   mm/hugetlb.c

(different base types)
mm/hugetlb.c:3894:56:    expected restricted vm_fault_t
mm/hugetlb.c:3894:56:    got unsigned int

Which is fixed by ->

"#define VM_FAULT_SET_HINDEX(x) ((__force vm_fault_t)((x) << 16))"

in final vm_fault_t patch.

Does it looks good ?
