I figured running sparse and trying to fix errors in staging could be a good starting point, but apparently it is not (I don't think I have any of the exotic hardware in staging). Is there anywhere else I could get started? Or are there other errors from sparse which are less likely to be complex to check and hence require hardware to test the changes? Cheers, -- Guillaume
