According to the kisskb build logs, it happens with gcc 4.6.3 only ;-)

Thanks for your patch!
Reviewed-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org>
(for the initialization loop, not for the actual INT_MIN value)
Unfortunately I don't have a gcc-4.6.3 Linux cross-compiler anymore.
I tried with msp430-gcc-4.6.3 and some hackery to get it to compile,
but that didn't let me reproduce the warning.
Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
Geert
