Subject: [PATCH v2] mt76/mt7915: Fix unsigned compared against zero

The mt7915_dpd_freq_idx() function can return a negative value but this
value is assigned to an unsigned variable named idx. Then, the code
tests if this variable is less than zero. This can never happen with an
unsigned type.

So, change the idx type to a signed one.

Fixes: 495184ac91bb8 ("mt76: mt7915: add support for applying pre-calibration data")
