Thanks Dan,

We discussed this a bit when the patch was submitted.  I'm just curious
if your static checker is checking all code or just new patches?  The
reason for asking is that there are similar issues later on in this
routine that ware not changed by this patch.  In fact, there are several
instances of this type of 'undefined behavior' in the hugetlbfs code.

I can go through the code and try to change all such instances.  However,
by code inspection alone I am likely to miss some.  If you or others can
point out a tool (or compiler options) to look for all such instances that
would make such an exercise easier.
