[PATCH wireless-next v2 4/4] wifi: rtw88: rtw8822c: simplify amplitude search and offset via s32

From: Arsenii Pashchenko

Date: Thu Aug 13 2026 - 01:49:01 EST


Complete the signed data transition by removing the complex
rtw8822c_rf_minmax_cmp() helper. On a true linear s32 scale, finding
the delta amplitude simplifies to a direct difference (max - min)
without any nested circular wrap-around conditions.

Refactor rtw8822c_dac_iq_offset() to directly calculate the trimmed
arithmetic mean, casting back to the hardware register's offset
orientation only at the final assignment using a ternary operator.
