3.13.11.3 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni at free-electrons.com>
commit da343fc776e0bcb238b65d9d24610819b95d0ef4 upstream.
The armada_370_xp_alloc_msi() function returns a signed int, which is
negative on error. However, we store the return value into an
irq_hw_number_t, which is unsigned. Therefore, we actually never test
if armada_370_xp_alloc_msi() returns an error or not, which may lead
us to use hwirq numbers of as 0xffffffe4 (when
armada_370_xp_alloc_msi() returns -ENOSPC).
This commit fixes that by storing the return value of
armada_370_xp_alloc_msi() in a signed variable.
Fixes: 31f614edb726fcc4d5aa0f2895fbdec9b04a3ca4 ('irqchip: armada-370-xp: implement MSI support')
