Hello,

commit e1a50de37860 ("arm64: cputype: Silence Sparse warnings")
introduces "UL" suffix to a hex number, but it causes a build error with gcc-6 series.
I've hit below error with 6.2.1 and 6.4.1. Of course this is resolved by the latest
stable gcc-7.2.1. But from the compatibility point of view, should we revert it?

I've checked with below 2 latest gccs.
