Subject: [PATCH][next] net: hns: fix unsigned comparison to less than zero

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

Currently mskid is unsigned and hence comparisons with negative
error return values are always false. Fix this by making mskid an
int.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Operands don't affect result")
