[PATCH v2] nvme-tcp: fix signedness bug in nvme_tcp_init_connection()
From: Dan Carpenter
Date: Wed Mar 05 2025 - 10:53:16 EST
The kernel_recvmsg() function returns an int which could be either
negative error codes or the number of bytes received. The problem is
that the condition:
if (ret < sizeof(*icresp)) {
is type promoted to type unsigned long and negative values are treated
as high positive values which is success, when they should be treated as
failure. Handle invalid positive returns separately from negative
error codes to avoid this problem.

v2: Change the style. Add the Reviewed-by tags. (I will feel really bad
if I introduced a bug in between v1 and v2 and cause everyone
embarrassment with the R-b tags.)
