Subject: [net-next 8/9] ixgbe: Resolve cppcheck format string warning

From: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@...el.com>

cppcheck warns that the format string is incorrect in the function
ixgbe_get_strings().  Since the value cannot be negative, change the
variable to unsigned which matches the format specifier.
