Dan Carpenter says:
The patch 640f763f98c2: "net: dsa: sja1105: Add support for Spanning
Tree Protocol" from May 5, 2019, leads to the following static
checker warning:
drivers/net/dsa/sja1105/sja1105_main.c:1073 sja1105_stp_state_get()
warn: signedness bug returning '(-22)'
The caller doesn't check for negative errors anyway.
