Hi Geert,
On mips and parisc:

   drivers/bluetooth/btwilink.c: In function 'ti_st_open':
   drivers/bluetooth/btwilink.c:174:21: warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion [-Woverflow]
      hst->reg_status = -EINPROGRESS;

   drivers/nfc/nfcwilink.c: In function 'nfcwilink_open':
   drivers/nfc/nfcwilink.c:396:31: warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion [-Woverflow]
     drv->st_register_cb_status = -EINPROGRESS;

There are actually two issues:
 1. Whether "char" is signed or unsigned depends on the architecture.
    As the completion callback data is used to pass a (negative) error
    code, it should always be signed.
 2. EINPROGRESS is 150 on mips, 245 on parisc.
    Hence -EINPROGRESS doesn't fit in a signed 8-bit number.

Change the callback status from "char" to "int" to fix these.
