Currently, we disable -Wtautological-compare, which in turn disables a bunch of more specific tautological comparison warnings that are useful for the kernel (see clang's documentation below). Now that all of the major/noisy warnings have been fixed, enable -Wtautological-compare so that more issues can be caught at build time. -Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare is kept disabled because there are places in the kernel where a constant or variable size can change based on the kernel configuration; these are not fixed in a clean/concise way and they are almost always harmless so this one subwarning is kept disabled.
