This is just a cleanup patch to silence a static checker warning.
The problem is that we cap "nr_iovecs" so it can't be larger than
"UIO_MAXIOV" but we don't check for negative values. It turns out
this is prevented at other layers, but logically it doesn't make
sense to have negative nr_iovecs so making it unsigned is nicer.
