Subject: [PATCH] ocxl: fix signed comparison with less than zero

Currently the comparison of used < 0 is always false because
uses is a size_t. Fix this by making used a ssize_t type.

Detected by Coccinelle:
drivers/misc/ocxl/file.c:320:6-10: WARNING: Unsigned expression
compared with zero: used < 0
