[PATCH 5.17 106/219] netfilter: nf_tables: nft_parse_register can return a negative value

From: Antoine Tenart <atenart@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit 6c6f9f31ecd47dce1d0dafca4bec8805f9bc97cd ]

Since commit 6e1acfa387b9 ("netfilter: nf_tables: validate registers
coming from userspace.") nft_parse_register can return a negative value,
but the function prototype is still returning an unsigned int.

Fixes: 6e1acfa387b9 ("netfilter: nf_tables: validate registers coming from userspace.")
