MIN_REFCOUNT_CACHE_SIZE is 4 and the cluster size is guaranteed to be at most 2MB, so the minimum refcount cache size (in bytes) is always going to fit in a 32-bit integer.
Coverity doesn't know that, and since we're storing the result in a uint64_t (*refcount_cache_size) it thinks that we need the 64 bits and that we probably want to do a 64-bit multiplication to prevent the result from being truncated. This is a false positive in this case, but it's a fair warning. We could do a 64-bit multiplication to get rid of it, but since we know that a 32-bit variable is enough to store this value let's simply reuse min_refcount_cache, make it a normal int and stop doing casts.
