commit 4d752e5af63753ab5140fc282929b98eaa4bd12e upstream. commit b344d6a83d01 ("parisc: add support for cmpxchg on u8 pointers") can generate a sparse warning ("cast truncates bits from constant value"), which has been reported several times [1] [2] [3]. The original code worked as expected, but anyway, let silence such sparse warning as what others did [4].

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
