My point was that it's more likely to be a user error in case of
non-trivial expressions.  But arguing with Linus about probabilities of
user errors and other fuzzy matters is not something I'm prepared to.

I really don't care about this part.  I actually think that sparse
should augment gcc capabilities rather than duplicate them.  If we
cannot do better than gcc, we can just stop bothering.
