Not my driver, your choice, I was just pointing out some compile warnings
(without thinking enough about the context of the warnings - see below).

Good point. I did not actually look at what the meaning of the two
properties is, and whether it makes sense for them to have a negative
value. I also did not check the binding description (doing so now,
it clearly states that these property values are unsigned), I just
noted that there is a mismatch between the type of the properties
(u32) and the variables they are assigned to. As the compile warnings
below indicate, if the property value is large enough, it will be a
negative value after assignment to the int variable. The proper
answer is probably to change the variables to unsigned.

It would be good if someone did.
Not a critical issue, just a trap waiting to catch someone who puts
a very large value for one of those properties in a device tree source
file and does not realize it will be a negative number in the driver.
