Subject: [PATCH 3/3] serial: core: Update uart_poll_timeout function to return
 unsigned int

From: VAMSHI GAJJELA <vamshigajjela@...gle.com>

uart_fifo_timeout() returns unsigned value, hence the function
uart_poll_timeout has been modified to use an unsigned int type for
timeout values instead of a signed int. The return type of the function
has been changed from int to unsigned int for consistency with the type
of timeout values. The result of uart_fifo_timeout() is cast to u32,
indicating that the value is truncated.
