patch 'net/ice/base: fix type conversion' has been queued to stable release 24.11.3

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.3

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 07/23/25. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/0418eab283515a30fcb8ddadab35408a83d7f312

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/ice/base: fix type conversion

[ upstream commit 16517011abfb4974af4eba63ad5a5e2aa65ef3ee ]

In ice_sched_move_vsi_to_agg() int16 is used to pass 8 bit value
which causes a compiler warning:

warning C4244: 'function' : conversion from 'UINT16' to 'UINT8',
possible loss of data

Changed variable type to avoid conversion

Fixes: aff06930682c ("net/ice/base: remove 255 limit on sched child nodes")
