[PATCH] hwmon: (ina2xx) Change register cache to signed
From: Fabio Baltieri
Date: Sat Jun 07 2014 - 16:47:14 EST
All devices supported by the ina2xx driver are bidirectional and reports
the measured value as a signed 16 bit, but the current driver
implementation caches the number as an u16, leading to an incorrect sign
extension when reporting to the userspace in ina2xx_get_value().
This patch fixes the problem by using a s16 instead, and has been tested
on an INA219.
