The pincontrol registers of Tegra chips has multiple filed per
registers. There is two type of registers mux and drive. All
configurations belongs to one of these registers.

If any configurations are supported then <config>_bit is set to
bit position of these registers otherwise -1 to not support it.
The member is defined as
	s32 <config>_bit:6;

So if config is not supported ifor given SoC then it is set to -1
in soc pinmmux table.
In common driver code, to find out that given config is supported
or not, it is checked as:

s8 bit = <config>_bit;
if (bit > 31) {
	/* Not supported */
}

But in this case, bit is s8 and hence for non supporting it is -1.

Correct the check as:
if (bit < 0 || bit > 31) {
	/* Not supported */
}

I think it should go on stable.

May as well only test (*bit < 0)? Same for your other patch.

It'd be good to add the following tag to the commit description:

Fixes: e4c02dced975 ("pinctrl: tegra: use signed bitfields for optional fields")

This patch has the potential to suddenly catch more invalid configurations than it used to, and thus break some boards. However, I think this actually is safe; any errors that will be caught after this patch would have been caught before the "signed bitfields" patch above, and briefly looking at the (subject lines of) patches that have gone in since the "signed bitfields" patch was applied, I don't think we'll see any new issues.
