The above two lines were updated to use the PMEM API with this commit:

commit d77e92e270ed ("dax: update PMD fault handler with PMEM API")

but they aren't updated in the reverted version here:

This is the source of the follow-up sparse warning from the kbuild robot.


Also, if I understood your previous mails correctly you were targeting the
first two revert patches for v4.3 so we get back to v4.2 level locking, and
the rest of the series will target v4.4, correct? How does this work? Do the
patches need to be split into two series and tested separately?
