Subject: Re: [PATCH] liquidio: fix: warning: %u in format string (no. 3)
 requires 'unsigned int' but the argument type is 'signed int'.

There is no additional safety here.

The for loop ensures that i is positive as num_ioq_vector is also
int and so i can not be negative as it's incremented from 0.
