Subject: linux/kernel.h: fix warning seen with W=1 due to change in DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST
After commit b6d86d3d ("Fix DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST to support negative
dividends"), the following warning is seen if the kernel is compiled with
W=1 (-Wextra):
warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is always true
The warning is due to the test '((typeof(x))-1) >= 0', which is used to
detect if the variable type is unsigned. Research on the web suggests
that the warning disappears if '>' instead of '>=' is used for the
comparison.
Tests after changing the macro along that line show that the warning is gone,
and that the result is still correct:
i=-4: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=-2
i=-3: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=-2
i=-2: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=-1
i=-1: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=-1
i=0: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=0
i=1: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=1
i=2: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=1
i=3: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=2
i=4: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(i, 2)=2
Code size is the same as before.
