The return value from the call to of_property_count_u32_elems() is int.
However, the return value is being assigned to an u32 variable
'num_outputs', so making 'num_outputs' an int.
./drivers/pwm/pwm-lp3943.c:238:6-17: WARNING: Unsigned expression compared with zero: num_outputs <= 0.

Which tool does emit this warning? My test build (with C=1 and W=1)
doesn't emit it.

This problem was introduced in a commit in next:
Fixes: d6a56f3bb650 ("pwm: lp3943: Use of_property_count_u32_elems() to
get property length")
Rob: I guess this wasn't the only conversion of this type. Maybe these
others suffer from the same problem?!

Nitpick (maybe even a subjective one):
While touching num_outputs, its scope could be reduced to the for loop.

I hoped for some more feedback, but anyhow: Applied to
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ukleinek/linux.git pwm/for-next
with the Fixes line.
