Correct.

That driver also knows it will never be negative.
And you forgot about
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_gnss.c

It's a separate change and should not be hidden away in a tree-wide
change that goes through a different maintainer.
Please drop this change from this patch and resubmit it separately to me
if you want and I'll review when I have the time.
And when doing tree-wide changes, please try to follow the style of the
driver you are changing (e.g. do not introduce inconsistencies by
changing to open parenthesis alignment of continuation lines in code
that do not use it).
