Making 'blk' sector_t (i.e. 64 bit if LBD support is active) fails the
'blk>0' test in the partition block loop if a value of (signed int) -1 is
used to mark the end of the partition block list.
Explicitly cast 'blk' to signed int to allow use of -1 to terminate the
partition block linked list.
Fixes: b6f3f28f60 ("block: add overflow checks for Amiga partition support")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
