That's not a false positive. The code is (simplified):

  int RoundDown(int a, long b) { return a & -b; }

... which is implicitly converting an expression of type `long` to `int`, losing precision. For example, `RoundDown(-1, 0x1'0000'0000)` is -4294967296 prior to the implicit conversion from `long` to `int`. Given that the truncation is presumably intentional (0 at least seems like the least-bad answer for rounding down 0 to a multiple of 2^32 as a 32-bit integer), you can suppress the warning with a cast.
