With the current Linus tree, I do not see this sparse warning. However, applying the above patch, "make M=fs/zonefs C=1" generates a lot of warnings: make -j64 M=fs/zonefs C=1 CC [M] fs/zonefs/super.o CC [M] fs/zonefs/sysfs.o CHECK fs/zonefs/sysfs.c CHECK fs/zonefs/super.c fs/zonefs/sysfs.c: note: in included file (through include/linux/bitops.h, include/linux/kernel.h, arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h, arch/x86/include/asm/preempt.h, include/linux/preempt.h, include/linux/spinlock.h, ...): ./arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:66:1: warning: unreplaced symbol 'return' fs/zonefs/sysfs.c: note: in included file (through include/linux/bitops.h, include/linux/kernel.h, arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h, arch/x86/include/asm/preempt.h, include/linux/preempt.h, include/linux/spinlock.h, ...): ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:29:9: warning: unreplaced symbol 'mask' ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:30:9: warning: unreplaced symbol 'p' ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:32:10: warning: unreplaced symbol 'p' ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:32:16: warning: unreplaced symbol 'mask' ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:27:1: warning: unreplaced symbol 'return' fs/zonefs/sysfs.c: note: in included file (through arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h, include/linux/bitops.h, include/linux/kernel.h, arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h, arch/x86/include/asm/preempt.h, include/linux/preempt.h, ...): ./include/asm-generic/bitops/instrumented-non-atomic.h:26:1: warning: unreplaced symbol 'return' fs/zonefs/sysfs.c: note: in included file (through include/linux/bitops.h, include/linux/kernel.h, arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h, arch/x86/include/asm/preempt.h, include/linux/preempt.h, include/linux/spinlock.h, ...): ./arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:92:1: warning: unreplaced symbol 'return' fs/zonefs/sysfs.c: note: in included file (through include/linux/bitops.h, include/linux/kernel.h, arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h, arch/x86/include/asm/preempt.h, include/linux/preempt.h, include/linux/spinlock.h, ...): ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:38:9: warning: unreplaced symbol 'mask' ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:39:9: warning: unreplaced symbol 'p' ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:41:10: warning: unreplaced symbol 'p' ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:41:16: warning: unreplaced symbol 'mask' ./include/asm-generic/bitops/generic-non-atomic.h:36:1: warning: unreplaced symbol 'return' ...
