4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f287eb9013ccf199cbfa4eabd80c36fedfc15a73 ] The error checks on freq for a negative error return always fails because freq is unsigned and can never be negative. Fix this by making freq a signed long.
