Just use "int".  s32 is for when signed 32 bit is specified in the
hardware.  I realize that it's done in this file, but if all your
friends jumped off a bridge doesn't mean you should drink their kool-aid.

                       ^^^^^^
I quite hate this postop.  It would have been cleaner to write it like:

	return (rssi < base) ? ((rssi - (base - 1)) / -5) * 2 + 5 : 0

I'm sorry, I'm not clever enough to figure out the potential values of
"rssi".  How did you work out this formula?  It feels like it came from
a standard or something?  Do we not have a function already which
implements the standard?
