This patch series fix several warnings reported by the Sparse tool
v2: Fixed patch format and comments as noted by
Greg Kroah-Hartman and clear a few more warnings
v3: Fixed patch format as noted by Greg Kroah-Hartman
v4: Fixed patch format as noted by Greg Kroah-Hartman
v5: Because of using a non-updated tree previously two
patches did not apply
v6: Clear warnings and styling issues
v7: Update patch format
