Frankly I'm surprised this one has sparse issues.
Really e.g. drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_nvme.h is new from June 2017.

It's not some ancient piece of code that no one understands so
we are afraid to touch it.

So if you care, why don't you just fix it up? I suspect it's a question
of just tagging structure fields properly.

Here's a patch fixing up one of the files in that driver.

--->

qla2xxx: make qla_nvme sparse clean

Without looking into what it actually does, just add annotations so
sparse does not complain. Separately, the handle field in cmd_nvme which
isn't tagged as LE should be examined for endian-ness by someone who
understands this hardware. If it actually needs to be native endian, a
comment explaining why would be a good idea.

Similarly for cur_dsd which seems to mix LE and native data.
