Length undergoes type conversion when passed (indirectly) as an argument for parameter of type 'unsigned int'. If length is negative this is a bug (the value after conversion is large). Declare 'length' to be an unsigned type instead of a signed type. Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Tobin C.
