s390x: fix flat file load on 32 bit systems
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
pc-bios/s390-zipl.rom is a flat image so it's expected that
loading it as elf will fail.
It should fall back on loading a flat file, but doesn't
on 32 bit systems, instead it fails printing:
    qemu: hardware error: could not load bootloader 's390-zipl.rom'

The result is boot failure.

The reason is that a 64 bit unsigned interger which is set
to -1 on error is compared to -1UL which on a 32 bit system
with gcc is a 32 bit unsigned interger.
Since both are unsigned, no sign extension takes place and
comparison evaluates to non-equal.

There's no reason to do clever tricks: all functions
we call actually return int so just use int.
And then we can use == -1 everywhere, consistently.
