Will fix in v3, thanks!

Done (here and in other files).

Done (here and below)

They can't be used directly because 128 maps to 0, but I can sure
simplify them a bit.

This is an invalid tag value, let it be U8_MAX.

Done

It would, but i % 2 above didn't survive the rewrite, so I assume it
is fine to keep pos % 2 == 0 as is.

Am I getting it right that I just need to change EXPORT_SYMBOL to
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS and import the namespace in
arch/arm64/mm/test_mtecomp.c?
I.e. MODULE_IMPORT_NS is not needed in mteswap_comp.c, because it is
linked into the kernel?

Haha, no idea :)
Removed it.

There's no max_array() in the kernel, am I missing something?

In fact it makes sense to make buf an unsigned long*, we don't treat
it as a byte array anywhere else.

Sparse doesn't report anything in these files, are there any
alternatives adopted in the kernel?

Note that handle is not dereferenced above, so there's no error per se.
Yet (as pointed out below) these checks are redundant, so I'll remove
some of them.

I think there's no agreement on this in the kernel code, but my
version is more popular:

$ git grep -B2 '^module_init(' | grep '\-}' -A2 | grep module_init | wc
   2688    2707  164023
$ git grep -B2 '^module_init(' | grep '\-}' -A1 | grep module_init | wc
    505     523   30989
