The u32 would never be less than zero so the error handling would
break.  I changed it to int.
In declaration we use s32:
static s32 bcma_erom_get_mst_port(struct bcma_bus *bus, u32 **eromptr);

Doesn't it sound better to use s32 instead of int?
I don't know.  I think I'm going to trust the original author on this
one.  I'll send you a v2 that uses s32.
Dan, I asked you to use int in both: call and function declaration.
I'm the author of that code, and I don't have anything against
modifying that :)

I think int is used much more often that s32 for errors.
