Subject: Re: [ofa-general] [PATCH] drivers/infiniband: fix comparsion between unsigned and negative

I just went through this patch, and all the changes are of the form of
removing the < 0 test from code like

	if (x < 0 || x > MAX) 
		return -ERROR;

which Linus said we don't change in the email <http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/11/28/206>
that Satyam just pointed out.  So I'll drop this patch.
