Subject: [PATCH 6/7] rtlwifi: Fix smatch warnings in usb.c

Smatch displays the following:
  CHECK   drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/usb.c
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/usb.c:458 _rtl_usb_rx_process_agg() warn: assigning (-98) to unsigned variable 'stats.noise'
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/usb.c:503 _rtl_usb_rx_process_noagg() warn: assigning (-98) to unsigned variable 'stats.noise'
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/usb.c:596 _rtl_rx_get_padding() info: ignoring unreachable code.
drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/usb.c:596 _rtl_rx_get_padding() info: ignoring unreachable code.

The negative number to an unsigned quantity is fixed by adding 256 to -98
to get the equivalent negative number.
