It may be better to use the latest version of sparse, i.e.

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/sparse/sparse.git

and then build the source code according to the direction on the page
https://kernelnewbies.org/Sparse

Otherwise, would get the errors like below if I install sparse using
apt-get install.
