cur_state and new_state are enums and when GCC considers
them as unsigned, the conditions are never met.

Clean up the following smatch warning:

drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/qp.c:4258 mlx4_ib_modify_wq() warn: unsigned
'cur_state' is never less than zero.

Actually the more robust change will be to move this change to the ib_uverbs_ex_modify_wq().

Thanks

But doesn't gcc consider enums to be 'int' as the standard requires?

This change looks really sketchy to me, cur_state and new_state are
both userspace controlled data. We should not make assumptions about
the underlying signedness of an enum when validating user data.

Ohh, I missed that.

I still think that the right change should be in
ib_uverbs_ex_modify_wq(), so both mlx4 and mlx5 will be protected.
