[PATCH 4.19 246/422] serial: mxs-auart: Fix potential infinite loop

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Nov 19 2019 - 00:34:51 EST


From: Anton Vasilyev <vasilyev@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 5963e8a3122471cadfe0eba41c4ceaeaa5c8bb4d ]

On the error path of mxs_auart_request_gpio_irq() is performed
backward iterating with index i of enum type. Underline enum type
may be unsigned char. In this case check (--i >= 0) will be always
true and error handling goes into infinite loop.

The patch changes the check so that it is valid for signed and unsigned
types.
