From: Yury Norov <yury.norov@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: tools: disable -Wno-type-limits Patch series "lib/find_bit: fast path for small bitmaps", v6. Bitmap operations are much simpler and faster in case of small bitmaps which fit into a single word. In linux/bitmap.c we have a machinery that allows compiler to replace actual function call with a few instructions if bitmaps passed into the function are small and their size is known at compile time. find_*_bit() API lacks this functionality; but users will benefit from it a lot. One important example is cpumask subsystem when NR_CPUS <= BITS_PER_LONG. This patch (of 12): GENMASK(h, l) may be passed with unsigned types. In such case, type-limits warning is generated for example in case of GENMASK(h, 0).
