sparse generates the following warning:
include/linux/prandom.h:114:45: sparse: sparse: cast truncates bits from
constant value
This is because the 64-bit seed value is manipulated and then placed in a
u32, causing an implicit cast and truncation. A forced cast to u32 doesn't
prevent this warning, which is reasonable because a typecast doesn't prove
that truncation was expected.
Logical-AND the value with 0xffffffff to make explicit that truncation to
32-bit is intended.
