[Minios-devel] [UNIKRAFT PATCH v4 2/2] lib/uknetdev: Fix compilation warning about signed/unsigned comparision

[Jia He <justin.he@xxxxxxx>]

This fixes the compilation warning when compiling libuknetdev

/root/hj/UK/unikraft/lib/uknetdev/netbuf.c: In function
'uk_netbuf_alloc_buf':
/root/hj/UK/unikraft/lib/uknetdev/netbuf.c:120:35: warning: comparison
between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
  if (likely(UINT16_MAX - headroom > NETBUF_ADDR_ALIGNMENT)) {
                                   ^
/root/hj/UK/unikraft/include/uk/arch/lcpu.h:48:43: note: in definition
of macro 'likely'
 #define likely(x)   (__builtin_expect((!!(x)), 1))
                                           ^

The UINT16_MAX is 0xffff (signed int) on my X86 host (gcc version 7.4.0).
Integer types smaller than int are promoted when an operation is performed
on them. Thus, the left side of equation is "int", and the right side is
size_t.
