Subject: [patch -next] qlcnic: underflow in qlcnic_validate_max_tx_rings()
This function checks the upper bound but it doesn't check for negative
numbers:
if (txq > QLCNIC_MAX_TX_RINGS) {
I've solved this by making "txq" a u32 type. I chose that because
->tx_count in the ethtool_channels struct is a __u32.
This bug was added in aa4a1f7df7 ('qlcnic: Enable Tx queue changes using
ethtool for 82xx Series adapter.').
