Subject: [PATCH 3.16 130/366] x86/apic: Fix signedness bug in APIC ID
 validity checks

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

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

From: Li RongQing <lirongqing@...du.com>

commit a774635db5c430cbf21fa5d2f2df3d23aaa8e782 upstream.

The APIC ID as parsed from ACPI MADT is validity checked with the
apic->apic_id_valid() callback, which depends on the selected APIC type.

For non X2APIC types APIC IDs >= 0xFF are invalid, but values > 0x7FFFFFFF
are detected as valid. This happens because the 'apicid' argument of the
apic_id_valid() callback is type 'int'. So the resulting comparison

   apicid < 0xFF

evaluates to true for all unsigned int values > 0x7FFFFFFF which are handed
to default_apic_id_valid(). As a consequence, invalid APIC IDs in !X2APIC
mode are considered valid and accounted as possible CPUs.

Change the apicid argument type of the apic_id_valid() callback to u32 so
the evaluation is unsigned and returns the correct result.
