Subject: [PATCH v2] gve: fix the wrong AdminQ buffer queue index check

The 'tail' and 'head' are 'unsigned int' type free-running count, when
'head' is overflow, the 'int i (= tail) < u32 head' will be false:

Only '- loop 0: idx = 63' result is shown, so it needs to use 'int' type
to compare, it can handle the overflow correctly.

typedef uint32_t u32;

int main()
{
        u32 tail, head;
        int stail, shead;
        int i, loop;

        tail = 0xffffffff;
        head = 0x00000000;

        for (i = tail, loop = 0; i < head; i++) {
                unsigned int idx = i & 63;

                printf("+ loop %d: idx = %u\n", loop++, idx);
        }

        stail = tail;
        shead = head;
        for (i = stail, loop = 0; i < shead; i++) {
                unsigned int idx = i & 63;

                printf("- loop %d: idx = %u\n", loop++, idx);
        }

        return 0;
}
