No, I have not checked sparse.

These values are defined via GENMASK on line 47 and 57 respectively
and should actually compute to the following values:
  for line 110 (line 47 has the define):
    GENMASK(BCM2835_TS_TSENSCTL_THOLD_BITS +     \
            BCM2835_TS_TSENSCTL_THOLD_SHIFT - 1, \
            BCM2835_TS_TSENSCTL_THOLD_SHIFT)
    = GENMASK(10 + 8 - 1, 8) 
    = GENMASK(17, 8)
    = (((~0UL) << (8)) & (~0UL >> (32 - 1 - (10 + 8 - 1))))
    = 0x3ff00
  for line 134 (line 57 has the define):
    GENMASK(BCM2835_TS_TSENSCTL_THOLD_BITS +     \
            BCM2835_TS_TSENSCTL_THOLD_SHIFT - 1, \
            BCM2835_TS_TSENSCTL_THOLD_SHIFT)
    = GENMASK(10 + 0 - 1, 0)
    = GENMASK(9, 0)
    = (((~0UL) << (0)) & (~0UL >> (32 - 1 - (10 + 0 - 1))))
    = 0x003ff

Note that the preprocessor expansions have been verified by
looking at the preprocessed driver source
(drivers/thermal/bcm2835_thermal.i)

I wonder why sparse is computing these GENMASK values as:
0x3ffffffffff00 and 0x3ffffffffff
