[PATCH 5.14 233/432] serial: 8250_pci: make setup_port() parameters explicitly unsigned

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-09-16 17:35:59
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: 8250/16?50 (and clone uarts) serial driver, the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, Linus Torvalds, Jiri Slaby

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

[ Upstream commit 3a96e97ab4e835078e6f27b7e1c0947814df3841 ]

The bar and offset parameters to setup_port() are used in pointer math,
and while it would be very difficult to get them to wrap as a negative
number, just be "safe" and make them unsigned so that static checkers do
not trip over them unintentionally.
