Arrgh... OK, I see what's going on. sparse commit affecting that
is "Allow casting to a restricted type if !restricted_value"; it
allows the things like (__le32)0. It's present in sparse.git,
but not in chrisl/sparse.git, which is what you are using.

Anyway, the thing I'd missed kernel-side is this:
#define __TYPE_IS_L(t) (__same_type((t)0, 0L))
#define __TYPE_IS_UL(t) (__same_type((t)0, 0UL))
#define __TYPE_IS_LL(t) (__same_type((t)0, 0LL) || __same_type((t)0, 0ULL))

Let's turn them into
#define __TYPE_AS(t, v) __same_type((__force t)0, v)
#define __TYPE_IS_L(t) (__TYPE_AS(t, 0L))
#define __TYPE_IS_UL(t) (__TYPE_AS(t, 0UL))
#define __TYPE_IS_LL(t) (__TYPE_AS(t, 0LL) || __TYPE_AS(t, 0ULL))

That should do it both for old and for new versions of sparse.
