[PATCH][next] hwmon: ltc2992: fix less than zero comparisons with an unsigned integer

From: Colin King
Date: Mon Dec 07 2020 - 09:24:58 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

There are several occurrances of a less than zero error check on
a u32 unsigned integer. These will never be true. Fix this by making
reg_value a plain int.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unsigned comparison against zero")
Fixes: e126370240e0 ("hwmon: (ltc2992) Add support")
