Subject: [PATCH v2] nitro_enclaves: Fix implicit type conversion
Date:   Fri, 29 Oct 2021 01:48:46 +0000
Message-Id: <1635472126-1822073-1-git-send-email-jiasheng@iscas.ac.cn>
Precedence: bulk

The variable 'cpu' and 'cpu_sibling' are defined as unsigned int.
However in the for_each_cpu, their values are assigned to -1.
That doesn't make sense and in the cpumask_next() they are implicitly
type conversed to int.
It is universally accepted that the implicit type conversion is
terrible.
Also, having the good programming custom will set an example for
others.
Thus, it might be better to change the definition of 'cpu' and
'cpu_sibling' from unsigned int to int.
