err.h: IS_ERR() can accept __user pointers
Sparse generates a false positive when you pass a __user or __iomem pointer to the IS_ERR() functions. drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1286.c:344:36: sparse: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces) drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1286.c:344:36: expected void const *ptr drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1286.c:344:36: got unsigned int [noderef] [usertype] <asn:2>*rtcregs We can silence these by adding a __force here and upgrading to Sparse v0.4.5-rc1 or later. This change has no effect when using current Sparse releases.
