[PATCH] Fix bug in fs/ecryptfs/inode.c: ecryptfs_encode_filename()
returns int (with possible negative error value), not
unsigned int. Both callers in the file get it wrong (they
are also the only callers of this function). Found by gcc
extra warning flags (the return value is checked to be < 0,
which is pointless with unsigned). Compile tested only, but
should be OK, as the value computed in the function
internally is int too.
