Subject: [24/45] hwmon: (jz4740) fix signedness bug

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

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

From: Axel Lin <axel.lin@...il.com>

commit 0b57d7602b68f7b2786b2f0e22da39cbd4139a95 upstream.

wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() may return negative value.
In this case, checking if (t > 0)  will return true if t is unsigned.
