As pointed on its description, this macro only works if both types
are either signed or unsigned. However, the macro itself doesn't check
it.

It probably worth adding something there to ensure that both types are 
either signed or unsigned. I would add this ancillary macro probably on
on a generic kernel header - as this can be useful outside drm:

	#define sign_matches(x, y) \
	        (!((typeof(x))-1 >= 0) ^ ((typeof(y))-1 >= 0))

And then include use it at overflows_type:

	BUILD_BUG_ON(!sign_matches(x, T))
