[PATCH 5.0 026/246] mm/sparse: fix a bad comparison

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



5.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit d778015ac95bc036af73342c878ab19250e01fe1 ]

next_present_section_nr() could only return an unsigned number -1, so
just check it specifically where compilers will convert -1 to unsigned
if needed.
