[ Upstream commit 4a6f18f28627e121bd1f74b5fcc9f945d6dbeb1e ]
GCC can see that the value range for "order" is capped, but this leads it to consider that it might be negative, leading to a false positive warning (with GCC 15 with -Warray-bounds -fdiagnostics-details):
../drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/alloc.c:691:47: error: array subscript -1 is below array bounds of 'long unsigned int *[2]' [-Werror=array-bounds=] 691 | i = find_first_bit(pgdir->bits[o], MLX4_DB_PER_PAGE >> o); | ~~~~~~~~~~~^~~ 'mlx4_alloc_db_from_pgdir': events 1-2 691 | i = find_first_bit(pgdir->bits[o], MLX4_DB_PER_PAGE >> o); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | | | | (2) out of array bounds here | (1) when the condition is evaluated to true In file included from ../drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/mlx4.h:53, from ../drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/alloc.c:42: ../include/linux/mlx4/device.h:664:33: note: while referencing 'bits' 664 | unsigned long *bits[2]; | ^~~~
Switch the argument to unsigned int, which removes the compiler needing to consider negative values.
