Subject: [PATCH 4.18 011/168] scsi: aacraid: fix a signedness bug

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit b9eb3b14f1dbf16bf27b6c1ffe6b8c00ec945c9b ]

The problem is that ->reset_state is a u8 but it can be set to -1 or -2 in
aac_tmf_callback() and the error handling in aac_eh_target_reset() relies
on it to be signed.

[mkp: fixed typo]
