Yes,corrected subject now.

Want to make sure to guard against negative value.

yes, checking against negative values will be sufficient.
I will share patch v2 with only check against negative values.

Because function  freq_qos_remove_request calls freq_qos_apply with
PM_QOS_DEFAULT_VALUE which is actually negative.
So I do not want to break that.
