Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx4_core: fix handling return value of
 mlx4_slave_convert_port

The function can return negative values, so its result should
be assigned to signed variable.

The problem has been detected using proposed semantic patch
scripts/coccinelle/tests/assign_signed_to_unsigned.cocci [1].
