Subject: [PATCH] RDMA/mlx5: Signedness bug in UVERBS_HANDLER()
Date: Sat, 22 Dec 2018 07:43:32 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181222074332.GA7662@kadam> (raw)

The "num_actions" variable needs to be signed for the error handling to
work.  The maximum number of actions is less than 256 so int type is
large enough for that.

Fixes: cbfdd442c43e ("IB/uverbs: Add helper to get array size from ptr attribute")
