Subject: wlcore: fix error handling in wlcore_event_fw_logger
From: Andrzej Hajda <[email protected]>
commit 68f37e5d7a2e00306adab033fba6c3042b33e8e1 upstream.
wlcore_read/wlcore_write can return negative values so it should be assigned to signed variable.
The problem has been detected using proposed semantic patch scripts/coccinelle/tests/unsigned_lesser_than_zero.cocci [1].
