Aside of "should such cast be a constant integer expression"... Umm. But sparse is meant to parse C code. Which very much includes *other* projects. The kernel, for example, has its own offsetof. And yes, these days we use "__compiler_offsetof()", but we used to do #define offsetof(TYPE, MEMBER) ((size_t) &((TYPE *)0)->MEMBER) and I seriously doubt that the kernel is the only one doing things like that.
