This needs to be unsigned int, otherwise there is a build error:

../drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa/dpaa_eth.c:2622:20: error: incompatible pointer types initializing 'void (*)(struct net_device *, unsigned int)' with an expression of type 'void (struct net_device *, int)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
.ndo_tx_timeout = dpaa_tx_timeout,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
