Spose so.  One always suspects that adding a typecast is a sign that we
screwed things up somehow.  The relationship between enums lru_list and
node_stat_item is foggy, and I'm unsure whether this is the place to
make the transition it.  Perhaps lru_list_name() should take an
`unsigned int' arg instead.

All of these *_name() functions do seem to expect arguments in range of
the corresponding enums, so perhaps keep those args typed as a form of
self-documenting code, and do this instead?

If nobody objects I will submit this patch for review after the merge
window has closed:

Subject: [PATCH] mm/vmstat: Fix W=1 clang compiler warnings

Commit 30c2de0a267c ("mm/vmstat: fix a W=1 clang compiler warning")
suppresses some but not all compiler warnings that are reported by clang
when building with W=1 about NR_LRU_BASE and NR_ZONE_LRU_BASE. Hence
revert commit 30c2de0a267c and instead make NR_LRU_BASE and
NR_ZONE_LRU_BASE integer constants instead of enumeration constants.
