Hello there,


linux-4.16-rc1/drivers/misc/ocxl/file.c:320]: (style) Checking if unsigned variable 'used' is less than zero.

Source code is


        used = append_xsl_error(ctx, &header, buf + sizeof(header));
         if (used < 0)
             return used;

Suggest put return value from function into signed variable, sanity check it,

then assign it to an unsigned variable.


Also, use of the gcc compiler flag -Wtype-limits will show up this kind of problem in future.

Thanks for reporting it. A patch to address it is working its way up and should land in the next rc release.

  Fred
