[ Upstream commit 98ea51cb0c8ce009d9da1fd7b48f0ff1d7a9bbb0 ]

Hauke already fixed a couple of them, but one instance remains that checks for a negative integer when it should check for a NULL pointer:

arch/mips/lantiq/xway/sysctrl.c: In function 'ltq_soc_init':
arch/mips/lantiq/xway/sysctrl.c:473:19: error: ordered comparison of pointer with integer zero [-Werror=extra]
