[PATCH] iommu/omap: Use int type to store negative error codes
Posted by Qianfeng Rong 1 month ago
Change the 'ret' variable from u32 to int to store negative error codes
or zero;

Storing the negative error codes in unsigned type, doesn't cause an issue
at runtime but it's ugly. Additionally, assigning negative error codes to
unsigned type may trigger a GCC warning when the -Wsign-conversion flag
is enabled.

No effect on runtime.
