Yeah, me too. The reason I wrote the sparse logic to catch it was that I 
got another patch where I noticed what was going on, and the author said 
he had compile-tested it without any warnings. So gcc obviously does _not_ 
warn about the obvious error.

Yeah, the fix is obvious, but somebody who has more knowledge about this 
particular piece of code and how it would affect things should test that 
the bug wasn't hiding somethign else on a piece of hardware that is 
relevant to that initializer (which I don't know what it would be).
