[PATCH v2 2/8] drm/mipi-dsi: Fix theoretical int overflow in mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq()

The mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq() macro makes a call to
mipi_dsi_generic_write() which returns a type ssize_t. The macro then
stores it in an int and checks to see if it's negative. This could
theoretically be a problem if "ssize_t" is larger than "int".
To see the issue, imagine that "ssize_t" is 32-bits and "int" is
16-bits, you could see a problem if there was some code out there that
looked like:
mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq(dsi, <32768 bytes as arguments>);
...since we'd get back that 32768 bytes were transferred and 32768
stored in a 16-bit int would look negative.
Though there are no callsites where we'd actually hit this (even if
"int" was only 16-bit), it's cleaner to make the types match so let's
fix it.
