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]".
