--- Comment #4 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
So -Wconversion does not warn in this case as there is the conversion is being
promoted rather than a truncation.
That is
i < n
is being done in uint64_t.

Again in this case there is NO integer overflow. There is only unsigned integer
wrapping happening which is well defined C/C++ behavior.
Just the programmer was not expecting them and maybe should be warned about but
I always get the feeling this should be a -fanalyzer option as there needs to
be some extra static analysis to make sure if the programmer checks for the
wrapping we don't warn about it always ...
