igc: Fix launchtime before start of cycle
[ Upstream commit c1bca9ac0bcb355be11354c2e68bc7bf31f5ac5a ]
It is possible (verified on a running system) that frames are processed
by igc_tx_launchtime with a txtime before the start of the cycle
(baset_est).
However, the result of txtime - baset_est is written into a u32,
leading to a wrap around to a positive number. The following
launchtime > 0 check will only branch to executing launchtime = 0
if launchtime is already 0.
Fix it by using a s32 before checking launchtime > 0.
