Thanks for fixing this.

Is there some documentation about how to run sparse on the git codebase?
 I naively tried "make sparse" and ended up with zillions of errors like

/usr/include/unistd.h:288:54: error: attribute '__leaf__': unknown attribute
/usr/include/unistd.h:294:6: error: attribute '__leaf__': unknown attribute
/usr/include/unistd.h:298:6: error: attribute '__leaf__': unknown attribute
/usr/include/unistd.h:306:6: error: attribute '__leaf__': unknown attribute
/usr/include/unistd.h:338:18: error: attribute '__leaf__': unknown attribute
/usr/include/unistd.h:347:6: error: attribute '__leaf__': unknown attribute
/usr/include/unistd.h:418:36: error: attribute '__leaf__': unknown attribute
/usr/include/unistd.h:423:50: error: attribute '__leaf__': unknown attribute
