[PATCH 5.3 1/6] net: cdc_ncm: Signedness bug in cdc_ncm_set_dgram_size()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Nov 22 2019 - 06:06:46 EST


From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit a56dcc6b455830776899ce3686735f1172e12243 upstream.

This code is supposed to test for negative error codes and partial
reads, but because sizeof() is size_t (unsigned) type then negative
error codes are type promoted to high positive values and the condition
doesn't work as expected.
