[ Upstream commit451dc48c80] This patch fixes an issue that an u32 netlink value is handled as a signed enum value which doesn't fit into the range of u32 netlink type. If it's handled as -1 value some BIT() evaluation ends in a shift-out-of-bounds issue. To solve the issue we set the to u32 max which is s32 "-1" value to keep backwards compatibility and let the followed enum values start counting at 0. This brings the compiler to never handle the enum as signed and a check if the value is above NL802154_IFTYPE_MAX should filter -1 out.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
