Smatch also wanted to send this warning.  I am testing a fix to silence
this warning in Smatch.  It looks for an some_int > some_expression
where some_expression has ULONG_MAX on the far left hand side of the
binop.  Because the some_expression always starts with ULONG_MAX and
then divides it and/or subtracts from it to get the max.
