Thank you, I will validate my patches before sending with sparse also.

I have tried with sparse==0.6.4:
---
$ make CC="ccache gcc" W=1 C=2 CF=-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__ 2>&1 | grep
nct6775 -n5
....
27219- CHECK drivers/hwmon/nct6683.c
27220: CHECK drivers/hwmon/nct6775.c
27221- CHECK drivers/hwmon/nct7802.c
....
---

It has not showed any warnings. Have I missed some flag?


Best regards,
Denis.
