[PATCH] s3/rpc_server/srvsvc/srv_srvsvc_nt.c: change snum to signed int

Hi,

Another PVS fix:

snum is used to store the result of the find_service() call which
returns a signed int, with -1 being an error.
    
As an uint32_t the implicit cast converts -1 to UINT32_MAX in snum and
the error check (< 0) is always false.

The attached patch defines snum as an int instead of uint32_t. When
snum is subsequently passed to count_share_opens() as an uint32_t the
implicit cast from a positive int to uint32_t is always safe AFAIK.

An alternative fix would be to replace the < 0 check with == UINT32_MAX
or == -1 which are equivalent (signed values are always casted to
unsigned in signed/unsigned comparison, e.g. -1 > 1U is true).

Please review/comment

Thanks!
