One change that was meant to address a sparse warning turned out
to cause hundreds of new gcc-7 warnings:

include/linux/of_irq.h:11:13: error: type qualifiers ignored on function return type [-Werror=ignored-qualifiers]

After reverting the change, the gcc warnings are gone again, and I
can't reproduce the sparse warnings either.

Fixes: 17a70355ea57 ("of: fix sparse warnings in fdt, irq, reserved mem, and resolver code")

It was just released last week or so. I actually had been using it for
a while but accidentally disabled a lot of the warning output until now
some others started using it too and asked me about it.

I have v0.5.0-183-gfbbfc73. To clarify, I did not get a sparse warning after my
patch, I did not try reverting your patch first.
