Applied to pci/misc with changelog as below.

It seems pretty clear to me that pci_find_capability() returns either 0 or
a u8 value.  pci_find_ext_capability() does return an int.  It looks to me
like it can never be negative, but if you wanted it to be even more clear,
you could easily change just pci_find_next_ext_capability() to use a u16
for "pos".  That would be very simple and wouldn't change any interfaces.

    PCI: Simplify pci_find_(ext_)capability() return value checks
    
    The return value of the pci_find_(ext_)capability() is either zero or the
    position of a capability.  It is never negative.
    
    This patch consolidates the form of check from (pos <= 0) to (!pos).
