Doh, I should not have reduced the CC list in the xfs subthread...

The builds above are all gcc-5 builds, so they are affected by the same
issue as XFS: unsigned constants that don't fit in int are lacking a
"U" suffix.

I assume Arnd's patch for
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/sdio.c
fixes this?

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
