Subject: [PATCH][V2] drm/i915/guc: fix GEM_BUG_ON check

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

The check for level being less than zero always false because flags
is currently unsigned and can never be negative. Fix this by making
flags a s32.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1468363 ("Macro compares unsigned to 0")

Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

V2: Make flags s32 rather than remove the GEM_BUG_ON check, thanks to
Ville Syrjälä for spotting the mistake in my first attempt.
