Subject: [PATCH][next] net: phy: bcm54140: fix less than zero comparison on an unsigned

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

Currently the unsigned variable tmp is being checked for an negative
error return from the call to bcm_phy_read_rdb and this can never
be true since tmp is unsigned.  Fix this by making tmp a plain int.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unsigned compared against 0")
Fixes: 4406d36dfdf1 ("net: phy: bcm54140: add hwmon support")
