Some audio drivers are calling snd_dma_continuous_data(GFP_KERNEL)
which makes "sparse" give a warning:
$ make C=2 M=sound/usb modules
...
sound/usb/6fire/pcm.c:625:25: warning: cast from restricted gfp_t
sound/usb/caiaq/audio.c:845:41: warning: cast from restricted gfp_t
sound/usb/usx2y/usbusx2yaudio.c:997:54: warning: cast from restricted gfp_t
sound/usb/usx2y/usbusx2yaudio.c:1001:54: warning: cast from restricted gfp_t
sound/usb/usx2y/usx2yhwdeppcm.c:774:54: warning: cast from restricted gfp_t
sound/usb/usx2y/usx2yhwdeppcm.c:778:54: warning: cast from restricted gfp_t
Add __force to the cast to silence the warning.
