[PATCH] fs/cachefiles/daemon.c: remove the checking about "unsignedvalue whether less than zero".

From: Chen Gang
Date: Sat Sep 21 2013 - 07:33:31 EST


'datalen', 'fstop', and 'bstop' are all unsigned type which is never
less than zero. Although they can not cause real issue, it is still
better to remove them.

The related warning (allmodconfig for S5PV210, with "EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W"):

fs/cachefiles/daemon.c:225:2: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false [-Wtype-limits]
fs/cachefiles/daemon.c:389:2: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false [-Wtype-limits]
fs/cachefiles/daemon.c:461:2: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false [-Wtype-limits]
