Subject: [PATCH 3.16 056/294] IB/ipoib: Prevent setting negative values to
 max_nonsrq_conn_qp

3.16.50-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Alex Vesker <valex@...lanox.com>

commit 11f74b40359b19f760964e71d04882a6caf530cc upstream.

Don't allow negative values to max_nonsrq_conn_qp. There is no functional
impact on a negative value but it is logicically incorrect.

Fixes: 68e995a29572 ("IPoIB/cm: Add connected mode support for devices without SRQs")
