I cannot reproduce the same sparse errors.

My reproduce steps:
$ make ARCH=x86_64 mrproper
$ make ARCH=x86_64 allmodconfig
$ make ARCH=x86_64 CF='-fdiagnostic-prefix -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__' -j40
2>&1 | grep -v sched | tee log.txt
(Note: filter sched out to not get flood sparse errors)
$ grep cros_ec_codec log.txt
  CHECK   sound/soc/codecs/cros_ec_codec.c
  CC [M]  sound/soc/codecs/cros_ec_codec.o

It did not generate the same message as 0day reported.

One difference would be the sparse version (it is from "apt install"
in my environment):
$ sparse --version
0.6.0 (Debian: 0.6.0-3)
On the other hand, 0day used "v0.6.1-rc1-42-g38eda53-dirty".

Guenter, what we could do in the case?  Do you have any idea?
