Subject: Sparse warnings from calls to max3() and max

Hi,

Sparse has suddenly started issuing as many as 11 warnings of "expression using 
sizeof(void)" for each call to max3(). There are similar warnings for calls to 
max(), thus I think this is the origin of the problem. My sparse version is 
20180324-1.3-x86_64 installed in openSUSE Tumbleweed. My kernel is 4.19.0-rc6.

Thanks,

Larry
