I believe the patch is fine and the issue is caused by a compiler bug. The panic reproduces when compiling the kernel with gcc 11.3.1, but does not reproduce with latest gcc/clang. I have a patch that workarounds the issue by ditching the intermediate variable and does the casting in a single line. Will that be enough to solve the sparse/build issues? Do you have anything else in mind?
