Subject: [PATCH][next] scsi: target: fix unsigned comparision with less than zero

From: Colin Ian King <[email protected]>

Currently an error return is being assigned to an unsigned
size_t varianle and then checked if the result is less than
zero which will always be false. Fix this by making ret
ssize_t rather than a size_t.

Fixes: 0322913cab79 ("scsi: target: Add device product id and revision configfs attributes")

What kernel version was this made against?

For Martin's 5.2 queue branch, with these scsi changes it looks like
strlcpy returns a size_t. And then below it looks like we compare the
return value from that function to the buffer size and the max len of
the string we support. We do not seem to check for less than zero.

My mistake. I was looking at len and not ret.

Patch looks ok to me.

Applied to 5.2/scsi-queue, thanks!
