Define the ch_mask argument of sdw_ch_mask_to_ch() as an unsigned
so that the shift right is guaranteed to eventually make the
value of ch_mask==0.

Previously ch_mask was defined as a signed int, but a right
shift of a signed value preserves the sign bit. So if the sign
bit was 1, ch_mask would never become 0 and the for loop would
be infinite.

This patch1 is fine, but you remove this function in patch2, so is this
patch needed at all?

-/* Retrieve and return channel count from channel mask */
-static inline int sdw_ch_mask_to_ch(unsigned int ch_mask)
-{
-	int c = 0;
-
-	for (c = 0; ch_mask; ch_mask >>= 1)
-		c += ch_mask & 1;
-
-	return c;
-}

I'm happy to squash them, I did it in two steps so it didn't get
overlooked that there's a bugfix happening.
