There is not a bug here because the value of these fields is never
explicitly compared against (just whether it is zero or non-zero) but
it is easy to silence the warning by using an unsigned type to allow
an assignment of 0 or 1 without implicit conversion.

Nathan, thanks a lot for catching this, do you mind letting I merge this fix
into original patch? as the original patch has not been upstreamed yet.

Thanks,
