[PATCH 3.16 286/410] clocksource/drivers/fsl_ftm_timer: Fix error return checking

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Thu Jun 07 2018 - 10:19:06 EST


3.16.57-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit f287eb9013ccf199cbfa4eabd80c36fedfc15a73 upstream.

The error checks on freq for a negative error return always fails because
freq is unsigned and can never be negative. Fix this by making freq a
signed long.

Detected with Coccinelle:
drivers/clocksource/fsl_ftm_timer.c:287:5-9: WARNING: Unsigned expression
compared with zero: freq <= 0
drivers/clocksource/fsl_ftm_timer.c:291:5-9: WARNING: Unsigned expression
compared with zero: freq <= 0

Fixes: 2529c3a33079 ("clocksource: Add Freescale FlexTimer Module (FTM) timer support")
