The compiler warns about a tautological comparison in mremap_test.c: "pointer comparison always evaluates to false [-Wtautological-compare]"
This occurs when checking for unsigned overflow: if (addr + c.dest_alignment < addr)
Cast 'addr' to 'unsigned long long' to ensure the comparison is performed with a wider type, correctly detecting potential overflow and resolving the warning.
