Subject: [PATCH] amd-xgbe: fix unsigned comparison against less than zero

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

Comparing unsigned int ret to less than zero for an error status
check is never true.  Fix this by making ret a signed int. Reduce
scope of ret too.

Found with static analysis by CoverityScan, CID 1377750
