[PATCH] mtd: spi-nor: Kill check with no effect

header.major is of type u8 and cannot be negative.

Detected by CoverityScan CID#1417858 ("Integer handling issues")

Fixes: f384b352cbf0 ("mtd: spi-nor: parse Serial Flash Discoverable
Parameters (SFDP) tables")

Cyrille,

I'm not sure what exactly you wanted to test.
Maybe it makes sense casting header.major to s8 before checking against < 0?

Thanks,
//richard
