The following patch series fixes sparse warning. There are still 3 warnings left which I am figuring out. I wanted to send these to get feedback and see if I am on the right path.
Patch 1 is the significant one which involves some refactoring. I am guessing the 3 remaining sparse warnings will require similar refactoring. Patch 4 remove the __noreturn attribute as this confuses sparse. I am not sure if removing this is the right thing to do or if we should be fixing sparse. The other 3 are trivial.
