sparse complains loudly when string literals associated with preprocessor directives are split into multiple, separately quoted strings across different lines:
arch/riscv/mm/init.c:341:9: error: Expected ; at the end of type declaration arch/riscv/mm/init.c:341:9: error: got "not use absolute addressing." arch/riscv/mm/init.c:358:9: error: Trying to use reserved word 'do' as identifier arch/riscv/mm/init.c:358:9: error: Expected ; at end of declaration [ ... ] The compiler doesn't seem to mind the split string literal, but it's pretty ugly to my eyes - enough to outweigh the value of the 80-column warning from checkpatch. Fix by concatenating the strings. This patch should have no functional impact.
