Comparison between signed and unsigned values is fragile and causes
compiler warnings with recent compilers and stricter CFLAGS. Prevent such
comparisons either by properly declaring variables (mostly loop iterators)
as unsigned or by explicitly casting one side of the comparison.

Did you try changing ctx->argc to an unsigned int? I guess there would
be less casts that way, and it is a more logical type for this.

My favourite solution is to use '+ 0u' to force the signed
integer to unsigned.
Less likely to hide another bug than the cast.

But changing the type is better.
I just wish they'd fix gcc so that it didn't complain
if you'd just done a test that excluded negative values.

I tried now and the number of changes in ethtool.c is not as bad as
I thought. I even found one missing check which could allow argc to fall
below 0.
