cast_sign_loss: value can't be negative if guarded by assert:

similar to https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rust-clippy/issues/2728 however, the value was not a constant in my original code, instead I protected against negative values with an assert().
clippy 0.0.212

#[cfg_attr(feature = "cargo-clippy", warn(cast_sign_loss))]

fn main() {
    let x = get_some_number();
    assert!(x > 0);
    let y = "hi".to_string().repeat(x as usize);
    println!("{}", y);
}

pub fn get_some_number() -> i32 {
	5
}

warning: casting i32 to usize may lose the sign of the value

The issue provides no repository file or test entry point. Start by reproducing the Rust example and compare the requested behavior with rust-clippy issue 2728. Done means the cast_sign_loss lint accounts for the preceding assert before warning about the cast.
