This code works but it has a static checker warning:
drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_main.c:1687 init_dma_rx_desc_rings()
warn: always true condition '(queue >= 0) => (0-u32max >= 0)'
Obviously, it makes no sense to check if an unsigned int is >= 0. What
prevents this code from being a forever loop is that later there is a
separate check for if (queue == 0).
The "queue" variable is less than MTL_MAX_RX_QUEUES (8) so it can easily
fit in an int type. Any larger value for "queue" would lead to an array
overflow when we assign "rx_q = &priv->rx_queue[queue]".
Fixes: de0b90e52a ("net: stmmac: rearrange RX and TX desc init into per-queue basis")

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.
