[PATCH v2] IIO: bmp280-core.c: fix error in humidity calculation

From: Andreas Klinger
Date: Mon Apr 10 2017 - 13:00:50 EST


While calculating the compensation of the humidity there are negative values
interpreted as unsigned because of unsigned variables used. These values as
well as the constants need to be casted to signed as indicated by the
documentation of the sensor.

Changes in v2:
- cast also constants to signed; otherwise calculation is not correct

I removed the Acked-By of Linus Walleij because of another change in the
calculation. Don't know how it should be treated.
