Please use V3 as I stuffed up the alphabetic order
of sizeof and shadow.

I'm not sure it matters much, but the linux-kernel
Makefile wouldn't need to be changed if Wsizeof_bool
is default 0.

Here's a couple of other nits:

Maybe the evaluate.c "size = bits_in_char;" assignment

if (size == 1 && is_bool_type(type)) {
- warning(expr->pos, "expression using sizeof bool");
+ if (Wsizeof_bool)
+ warning(expr->pos, "expression using sizeof bool");
size = bits_in_char;
}

should be

size = sizeof(_Bool) * 8;

And also, in sparse.1, Josh Triplett is shown as
the maintainer. Maybe that should be changed to
Christopher Li
