b43: N-PHY: use more bits for offset in RSSI calibration
When calculating "offset" for final RSSI calibration we're using numbers bigger than s8 can hold. We have for example: offset[j] = 232 - poll_results[j]; formula. If poll_results[j] is small enough (it usually is) we treat number's bit as a sign bit. For example 232 - 1 becomes: 0xE8 - 0x1 = 0xE7, which is not 231 but -25. This code was introduced in e0c9a021 and caused stability regression on some cards, for ex. BCM4322. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.
