mmc: fix signed vs unsigned compare in read check in _spl_load()
Fix signed vs unsigned compare in read check in _spl_load()
Issue: when info->read() returns a negative value because of an error,
the comparison of 'read' (signed) with 'sizeof(*header)'
(unsigned silently converts the negative value into a very
large unsigned value and the check on the error condition
always return false, i.e. the error is not detected
Symptoms: if spl_load_image_fat() is unable to find the file 'uImage',
the SPL phase of the boot process just hangs after displaying
the following line:
Trying to boot from MMC1
Fix: cast 'sizeof(*header)' to int so the compare is now between
signed types
