[PATCH 37/75] Driver core: Make platform_device.id an int

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Jean Delvare <khali@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

While platform_device.id is a u32, platform_device_add() handles "-1"
as a special id value. This has potential for confusion and bugs.
Making it an int instead should prevent problems from happening in
the future.
