Sorry for the empty warning here. The actual sparse warning is:

arch/x86/events/amd/uncore.c:601:10: sparse: sparse: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces)
arch/x86/events/amd/uncore.c:601:10: sparse:     expected void const [noderef] __percpu *__vpp_verify
arch/x86/events/amd/uncore.c:601:10: sparse:     got union amd_uncore_info *
