Much better - it threw messages on a few files, it took me a moment to figure
out what happened.

  CHECK   init/do_mounts_initrd.c
init/do_mounts_initrd.c:8:2: warning: "Sparse checking disabled for this file"
include/linux/slab.h:307:43: error: attribute '__assume_aligned__': unknown attribute
include/linux/slab.h:308:58: error: attribute '__assume_aligned__': unknown attribute
include/linux/slab.h:337:73: error: attribute '__assume_aligned__': unknown attribute
include/linux/slab.h:375:74: error: attribute '__assume_aligned__': unknown attribute
include/linux/slab.h:378:80: error: attribute '__assume_aligned__': unknown attribute

but there's only like a few that disable sparse. Everything else behaves now.

Feel free to stick this on it:
