The one GCC flag I think we should enable, and probably was the one that
caught the most bugs in my patch set is this one: -Wtype-limits

There was only one false positive with this flag in block/blkdebug.c
where it bails on a < 0 comparison of an enum. enum doesn't seem to be
defined to being signed or unsigned, but a quick cast in that case would
make that single false positive go away.

Cheers,
Jes
