Having to add two comments to shut up Coverity feels awkward.  Would it
also work to do 'uint64_t j' instead of the current 'int j' in the
declaration a few lines earlier?  Not only would it be a smaller diff,
but the fewer Coverity comments we have to use, the better I feel.

I know this has already been pushed, but it is still worth seeing if a
followup patch can clean things further.
