The armada_370_xp_alloc_msi() function returns a signed int, which is negative on error. However, we store the return value into an irq_hw_number_t, which is unsigned. Therefore, we actually never test if armada_370_xp_alloc_msi() returns an error or not, which may lead us to use hwirq numbers of as 0xffffffe4 (when armada_370_xp_alloc_msi() returns -ENOSPC). This commit fixes that by storing the return value of armada_370_xp_alloc_msi() in a signed variable.
