commit fb6fafbc7de4a813bb5364358bbe27f71e62b24a upstream.

clang points out a harmless signed integer overflow:

drivers/net/ethernet/3com/3c515.c:1530:66: error: implicit conversion from 'int' to 'short' changes value from 32783 to -32753 [-Werror,-Wconstant-conversion]
                new_mode = SetRxFilter | RxStation | RxMulticast | RxBroadcast | RxProm;
                         ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~
drivers/net/ethernet/3com/3c515.c:1532:52: error: implicit conversion from 'int' to 'short' changes value from 32775 to -32761 [-Werror,-Wconstant-conversion]
                new_mode = SetRxFilter | RxStation | RxMulticast | RxBroadcast;
                         ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/net/ethernet/3com/3c515.c:1534:38: error: implicit conversion from 'int' to 'short' changes value from 32773 to -32763 [-Werror,-Wconstant-conversion]
                new_mode = SetRxFilter | RxStation | RxBroadcast;
                         ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~

Make the variable unsigned to avoid the overflow.
