This -Wsign-compare compiler warning can be very noisy
and most of the suggested conversions are unnecessary.

Make the warning W=3 so it's described under the
"can most likely be ignored" block.

Applied to linux-kbuild. Thanks.

This patch fixes the warning:
warning: comparison of integer expressions of different signedness: 'int' and 'long unsigned int' [-Wsign-compare]
I think these do not really need conversion.
Are these useful compiler warnings ?
Perhaps move the warning from W=2 to W=3 so
it's described as "can most likely be ignored"
