The mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq() macro makes a call to mipi_dsi_dcs_write_buffer() which returns a type ssize_t. The macro then stores it in an int and checks to see if it's negative. This could theoretically be a problem if "ssize_t" is larger than "int". To see the issue, imagine that "ssize_t" is 32-bits and "int" is 16-bits, you could see a problem if there was some code out there that looked like: mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq(dsi, cmd, <32767 bytes as arguments>); ...since we'd get back that 32768 bytes were transferred and 32768 stored in a 16-bit int would look negative. Though there are no callsites where we'd actually hit this (even if "int" was only 16-bit), it's cleaner to make the types match so let's fix it.
