hung_task: decrement sysctl_hung_task_warnings only if it is positive

Since sysctl_hung_task_warnings == -1 is allowed (infinite warnings), commit 48a6d64 ("hung_task: allow hung_task_panic when hung_task_warnings is 0") should decrement it only when it is not -1. This prevents the kernel from ceasing warnings after the first 4294967295 ;) Signed-off-by: Tetsuo Handa <[email protected]> Cc: John Siddle <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
