[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 021/192] mm/sparse: fix a bad comparison

[ Upstream commit d778015ac95bc036af73342c878ab19250e01fe1 ]

next_present_section_nr() could only return an unsigned number -1, so
just check it specifically where compilers will convert -1 to unsigned
if needed.

mm/sparse.c: In function 'sparse_init_nid':
