From: Richard Fitzgerald <rf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d327ea15a305024ef0085252fa3657bbb1ce25f5 ] sparse generates the following warning: include/linux/prandom.h:114:45: sparse: sparse: cast truncates bits from constant value This is because the 64-bit seed value is manipulated and then placed in a u32, causing an implicit cast and truncation. A forced cast to u32 doesn't prevent this warning, which is reasonable because a typecast doesn't prove that truncation was expected. Logical-AND the value with 0xffffffff to make explicit that truncation to 32-bit is intended.
