[PATCH 3.16 068/136] USB: legousbtower: fix a signedness bug in tower_probe()

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

commit fd47a417e75e2506eb3672ae569b1c87e3774155 upstream.

The problem is that sizeof() is unsigned long so negative error codes
are type promoted to high positive values and the condition becomes
false.
