drm_legacy_ctxbitmap_next() returns idr_alloc() which can return -ENOMEM, -EINVAL or -ENOSPC none of which are -1. since drm_context_t is an unsigned int an intermediate variable is used to handle the error cases, and then cast to drm_context_t after ensuring that the value is >= 0. The explicit cast is to mark the type conversion as intentional.

kbuild test robot reported: <snip> tree: git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm-misc for-linux-next-fixes head: d530b5f1ca0bb66958a2b714bebe40a1248b9c15 commit: d530b5f1ca0bb66958a2b714bebe40a1248b9c15 [2/2] drm: re-enable error +handling
smatch warnings: drivers/gpu/drm/drm_context.c:375 drm_legacy_addctx() warn: unsigned +'ctx->handle' is never less than zero. <snip>
V2: The proposed fix in d530b5f1ca0b ("drm: re-enable error handling") actually was ineffective as the negative return value check was against a unsigned int and thus always false as reported by kbuild test robot lkp@intel.com. The below patch removes that warning and fixes the original problem of missed error handling.
drm_context_t is actually just used in a few placed so the type could be changed but it is also exported via tools/include/uapi/drm/drm.h so changing the typedef of drm_context_t could break applications and thus this is not an option.
Patch was compile tested with: x86_64_defconfig
Patch is against 4.18-rc4 (localversion-next is next-20180717)
