I didn't change any MODULE_INFO() code, I guess it also happens
without my patches?

I saw something similar with MODULE_LICENSE and maybe MODULE_DESCRIPTION
in the 6.19 merge windows.

And it was a bug in sparse.

I updated the version I use to this commit:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/sparse.git/commit/?id=2634e39bf02697a18fece057208150362c985992
which is one above https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/sparse/sparse.git/
