It's harmless. That branch is only taken when using more than 4GB of memory, which in turn is only possible on a 64bit host. In this case the 'unsigned long' would be a 64bit integer (and the shift would be acceptable). There are a couple more of warning related to this issue, a possible solution to silence the warning is to use always 64bit integers instead of the longs.
