bio_alloc_bioset() takes a block device, number of vectors, the
OP flags, the GFP mask and the bio set. However when the prototype
was changed, the callisite in ppl_do_flush() had the OP flags and
the GFP flags reversed. This introduced some sparse error:
drivers/md/raid5-ppl.c:632:57: warning: incorrect type in argument 3
(different base types)
drivers/md/raid5-ppl.c:632:57: expected unsigned int opf
drivers/md/raid5-ppl.c:632:57: got restricted gfp_t [usertype]
drivers/md/raid5-ppl.c:633:61: warning: incorrect type in argument 4
(different base types)
drivers/md/raid5-ppl.c:633:61: expected restricted gfp_t [usertype]
gfp_mask
drivers/md/raid5-ppl.c:633:61: got unsigned long long
The sparse error introduction may not have been reported correctly by
0day due to other work that was cleaning up other sparse errors in this
area.

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.
