Per Documentation/SubmitChecklist:

22: Newly-added code has been compiled with `gcc -W' (use "make
EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W"). This will generate lots of noise, but is good for
finding bugs like "warning: comparison between signed and unsigned".


I was attempting to comply with that suggestion. If this is
unnecessary, then I can toss these, but I don't really see them
hurting anything.

Same goes for the other 2 patches found via 'EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W'.

Thanks,
Jon
