Subject: [PATCH 3/3] drivers/net: Unsigned expressions cannot be lesser than zero.

Presence of comparisons 'unsigned (<|<=|>|>=) 0' often indicates
a bug, usually wrong type of variable.

When using the qe_muram_alloc to alloc memory, return an offset
into the muram area on success and (unsigned long)-ENOMEM or
-ENOSYS (if not config CONFIG_CPM and CONFIG_QUICC_ENGINE) on
failure.
