Yes, the warnings are wrong, and the patches that were supposeed to
fix them breoke other things, so they were never merged.
Christopher reverted the patches that introduced the new warnings
in his tree: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/sparse/chrisl/sparse.git
until someone fixes or rewrites the context checking.

It looks like Christopher is serious about maintaining this tree, so
people should probably switch to using it.
