[Bug c/35701] New: Quieten -Wconversion warnings

[christian dot iseli at licr dot org]

Given the attached test case, I get warnings from -Wconversion.
I cannot find a way to quieten those warnings.
I believe the bit-and operations should quieten the warnings.

Here is the command line I used:
gcc -v -save-temps -O2 -std=gnu99 -W -Wall -Wconversion -pedantic -c test.c

Here is the output:
