gcc warning this: drivers/net/ieee802154/ca8210.c:730:10: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range of data type [-Wtype-limits] 'len' is u8 type, we get it from buf[1] adding 2, which can overflow. This patch change the type of 'len' to unsigned int to avoid this,also fix the gcc warning.
