[PATCH 1/2] soundwire: bus: Prevent infinite loop in sdw_ch_mask_to_ch()

From: Richard Fitzgerald
Date: Thu Feb 02 2023 - 11:08:47 EST


Define the ch_mask argument of sdw_ch_mask_to_ch() as an unsigned
so that the shift right is guaranteed to eventually make the
value of ch_mask==0.

Previously ch_mask was defined as a signed int, but a right
shift of a signed value preserves the sign bit. So if the sign
bit was 1, ch_mask would never become 0 and the for loop would
be infinite.
