From: Rikard Falkeborn <rikard.falkeborn@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kbuild: move -Wtype-limits to W=2
-Wtype-limits is included in -Wextra which is added at W=1. It warns
(among other things) that 'comparison of an unsigned variable `< 0` is
always false. This causes noisy warnings, especially when used in macros,
hence it is more suitable for W=2.
