I every tried to fix this when I got this report one year ago. The thing
is I found there are many places like this. I am not sure if it's worth
doing the type casting to satisfy sparse. And the type casting makes
very long line of code and reduce readibility.

If this is confirmed worth, I can post patch to fix them.
