Not sure that I would call this a false positive. The warning is correct
that there is a bitwise operation between different enumeration types
but we do not care since we are just using the enumerated type for its
integer value in lieu of a #define VAR value.

Is this cast needed? I don't think there should be warning from going
from an enumerated type to unsigned int.
