filter: use unsigned int to silence static checker warning
This is just a cleanup. My testing version of Smatch warns about this: net/core/filter.c +380 check_load_and_stores(6) warn: check 'flen' for negative values flen comes from the user. We try to clamp the values here between 1 and BPF_MAXINSNS but the clamp doesn't work because it could be negative. This is a bug, but it's not exploitable.
