Subject: [PATCH][next] drm/i915/xelpd: Fix unsigned compared to less than zero error

From: Colin Ian King <[email protected]>

The subtraction of fw->size - offset is operating on two unsigned
integers and the result is unsigned and hence the less than zero
comparison will always to be false. Fix this by casting fw->size
from a size_t to a ssize_t to ensure the result can be signed to
allow a less than zero result.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unsigned compared against 0")
Fixes: 3d5928a168a9 ("drm/i915/xelpd: Pipe A DMC plugging")
