Subject[PATCH] mtd: change len type from signed to unsigned type
Date
From: "huijin.park" <huijin.park@samsung.com>

assign of a signed value which has type 'int' to a variable of
a bigger unsigned integer type 'uint64_t'.
this is ok most of the time, but can lead to unexpectedly large
resulting value if the original signed value is negative.
in addtion, the callers of the erase_write() pass the len parameter
as unsigned type.
