Variable val is "u32" always >= 0, so val >= 0 condition are redundant.

Clean up the following coccicheck warning:

./drivers/net/dsa/qca8k.c:732:5-8: WARNING: Unsigned expression compared
with zero: val >= 0.

The qca8k driver has some problems with the handling of signed/unsigned
return values. I would suggest a better approach to be to make
qca8k_mii_read32 to return an int value, and keep this check as is.
