Subject: [PATCH][next] scsi: pm80xx: Fix potential infinite loop

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

The for-loop iterates with a u8 loop counter i and compares this
with the loop upper limit of pm8001_ha->max_q_num which is a u32
type.  There is a potential infinite loop if pm8001_ha->max_q_num
is larger than the u8 loop counter. Fix this by making the loop
counter the same type as pm8001_ha->max_q_num.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Infinite loop")
Fixes: 65df7d1986a1 ("scsi: pm80xx: Fix chip initialization failure")
