Subject[PATCH V2] eventfd: change int to __u64 in eventfd_signal()
Date
From: Sha Zhengju <handai.szj@taobao.com>

eventfd_ctx->count is an __u64 counter which is allowed to reach ULLONG_MAX.
Now eventfd_write() add an __u64 value to "count", but kernel side
eventfd_signal() only add an int value to it. So make them consistent.

changelog v2..v1
1. Changing 'n' to an unsigned type makes the "if (n < 0)" test a no-op.
