In commit 14baf4d9c739 ("cxl: Add guest-specific code") the following code
was added:
if (afu->crs_len < 0) {
dev_err(&afu->dev, "Unexpected configuration record size
value\n");
return -EINVAL;
}
However the variable `crs_len` is of type u64 and cannot be compared < 0.
Remove the dead code section. Fix the following warning treated as error
with W=1:
Thanks for reporting it. The test, as is, is indeed useless.
However, instead of just dropping it, we are discussing on improving it.
