From: Gao Xiang <hsiangkao@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 4d752e5af63753ab5140fc282929b98eaa4bd12e upstream. commit b344d6a83d01 ("parisc: add support for cmpxchg on u8 pointers") can generate a sparse warning ("cast truncates bits from constant value"), which has been reported several times [1] [2] [3]. The original code worked as expected, but anyway, let silence such sparse warning as what others did [4].
