No, every element of hw_reg_mapping is a register number, and those go from
zero up.  It's possible that a better fix would be to make hw_reg_mapping[]
and and virtual_grf_sizes[] unsigned, but that might have more cascading
effects than you want to deal with.  Eric, do you have an opinion?

Aside: what compiler (and compiler options) are you using to see these
warnings?  I don't get them with GCC.
