Hi Angelo, Jonathan,

I wanted to reply to this one when I saw it but I haven't done right away and
then totally forgot. Sorry about that!

I don't really agree with the "fix" in this patch. AFAIU, smatch is complaining
since the enum is apparently defaulting to an unsigned type which means doing
the >= 0 check is useless. But we should keep the upper bound...
