Hi Richie,
Reviewed-by: Petr Vorel <pvorel@suse.cz>
Fortunately we can workaround the issue with compiler flag.
Hopefully we never need to fork remote repo due need to add a patch to source
code.
Kind regards,
Petr

Used for the offsetof trick. Technically it is undefined behavior. A patch to Sparse is waiting upstream: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-sparse/20220321112119.23308-1-rpalethorpe@suse.com/T/#u In the meantime we can disable the warning to make it compile.
