Only that the return value of frame_vector_to_pages() returns int where
as the potential range that is converted is unsigned int. I don't think
there are any mistakes dealing with signed/unsigned but I don't see any
advantage of using unsigned either and limiting it to INT_MAX either.
It's not a big deal.
