It is improper to define `width` and `height` as signed in `struct font_desc`. Make them unsigned. Also, change the corresponding printk() format identifiers from `%d` to `%u`, in sti_select_fbfont(). Signed-off-by: Peilin Ye <redacted>I'm not entirely sure of the motivation here ... height/width should never ever be even close to the limit here. Or have you seen integer math that could potentially go wrong if we go with unsigned instead of int?
Oh... No, I have not. I just thought we shouldn't represent a length using a signed value. Also, width and height in console_font are unsigned int - that shouldn't matter that much though. [3/5] doesn't hunk properly without this patch, I'll send a v2 for [3/5] soon. Peilin
