[PATCH] net: ipv4: esp4: fix clang -Wformat warning

[Justin Stitt]

When building with Clang we encounter this warning:
| net/ipv4/esp4.c:1114:5: error: format specifies type 'unsigned short'
| but the argument has type 'int' [-Werror,-Wformat]
| aalg_desc->uinfo.auth.icv_fullbits / 8);

`aalg_desc->uinfo.auth.icv_fullbits` is a u16 but due to default
argument promotion becomes an int.

Variadic functions (printf-like) undergo default argument promotion.
Documentation/core-api/printk-formats.rst specifically recommends using
the promoted-to-type's format flag.

As per C11 6.3.1.1:
(https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1548.pdf) `If an int
can represent all values of the original type ..., the value is
converted to an int; otherwise, it is converted to an unsigned int.
These are called the integer promotions.` Thus it makes sense to change
%hu to %d not only to follow this standard but to suppress the warning
as well.

Nathan also mentions: This solution is in line with printk-formats.rst
after commit cbacb5ab0aa0 ("docs: printk-formats: Stop encouraging use
of unnecessary %h[xudi] and %hh[xudi]").

This is the exact same issue (and fix) as:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220707173040.704116-1-justinstitt@google.com/

This really should have been a 2-patch series but I've been going
through warnings and systematically fixing them whilst submitting
patches as I go.

In that case, since Joe had feedback on that patch, perhaps you can
fold this into that patch, and apply Joe's suggestions (sending a v2)?
