[PATCH][next] USB: EHCI: ehci-mv: fix less than zero comparison of an unsigned int

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The comparison of hcd->irq to less than zero for an error check will
never be true because hcd->irq is an unsigned int.  Fix this by
assigning the int retval to the return of platform_get_irq and checking
this for the -ve error condition and assigning hcd->irq to retval.

Thanks to Coverity for spotting this.  Any reason why it didn't spot 
exactly the same mistake in the ohci-da8xx.c driver?

Also, why wasn't the patch CC'ed for the stable series?

No idea, it is curious that it can spot one error but miss another.
Sometimes I see these issues on the next scan, so it maybe the database
diff'ing is awry.

Actually the question itself was my mistake.  I didn't notice that your 
patch was a fix to something that was just merged and hadn't been CC'ed 
to stable.

I just looked at the code and wondered whether it would be more 
appropriate to modify the header file "hcd.h".  Since 'irq' might be an 
negative, why not just modify the variables in the 'struct usb_hcd',  
'unsigned int  irq'--> 'int irq'? After all, it's a public one.

I think the code in the drivers should be changed.  The reason is if 
platform_get_irq() returns a negative value, then that value should be 
what the probe function returns.

platform_get_irq() returns a negative value, then that value should be
