Fine, I can delete the checks for negative instead (I'm surprised you
haven't already received a dozen bot emails about this).

I haven't been able to figure out where mc->min/max are set.  In
snd_soc_get_xr_sx() it checks whether "mc->min" is negative.

	if (min < 0 && val > max)
		val |= ~mask;

Is that a bug?  If mc->min is negative the math gets tricky.
