4.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

commit a598af7f0279195abffbfb9bf2070457e9c89ff3 upstream.

Unsigned is never less than zero so this error handling won't work.

Fixes: be052cc87745 ('extcon: Fix hang and extcon_get/set_cable_state().')
