[PATCH 07/17] usb: host: ehci-dbg: fix unsigned comparison

This patch fixes an unsigned comparison to less than 0.

Notes:
I'm not sure about that comparison because in qh_lines() temp receives
the snprintf() return and thereafter occurs this comparison:

if (size < temp)
temp = size;

Is it a test of string truncation right? That possibility is being
treated. But if after some snprintf returns the temp is exactly size
minus 1 (trailing null)? Could this scenario happen? If yes, I think
size could be not counting correctly. Let me know more about it.
