Both parts are to keep GCC from whining. If you use -Wall and not
-Wno-parentheses, GCC assumes that you don't understand the precedence
rules of && and || and, so, complains. I've would up adopting a nasty
gcc.mk file for CFLAGS just to get half decent warnings from GCC:
CFLAGS += \
-std=gnu99 \
-pipe \
-Wall \
-Wno-parentheses \
-Wno-missing-braces \
-Wno-switch \
-Wno-comment \
-Wno-sign-compare \
-Wno-uninitialized \
-Wno-unused-parameter \
-Wimplicit \
-Wreturn-type \
-Wtrigraphs \
-Wstrict-prototypes \
-Wmissing-prototypes \
-Wpointer-arith \
