Hello Nic,

Feedback from an RCU expert (which I'm not) would be appreciated here. 
But my understanding is that lockless_dereference(p) should be used for 
a pointer p that has *not* been annotated as an RCU pointer. I think in 
the for-next branch of the target repository that this macro is used to 
access RCU-annotated pointers. Is that why sparse complains about how 
lockless_dereference() is used in the target tree ?

Bart.
