Hi, 

This has already been reported and fixed in the main tree in late July.
It's not clear to me if the latest OpenSUSE packages for sparse contain
or not the needed fix.

Can you try the version compiled from the source? It's super-easy:
	cd $dir
	git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/sparse/sparse.git
	cd sparse
	make 
	cp sparse ~/bin/

It's what is used by the test bots.

Best regards,
-- Luc
