Subject: [PATCH][next] efi/tpm: fix sanity check of unsigned tbl_size being less than zero

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

Currently the check for tbl_size being less than zero is always false
because tbl_size is unsigned. Fix this by making it a signed int.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unsigned compared against 0")
Fixes: e658c82be556 ("efi/tpm: Only set 'efi_tpm_final_log_size' after successful event log parsing")
