The comedi_offset_munge() helper is used to convert unsigned int data values from the comedi offset binary format to two's complement values for hardware that needs the data in that format. The comedi data is always checked against s->maxdata before writing to the hardware so the current implementation always works correctly. It also works to convert the hardware two's complement data into the offset binary format used by comedi. Unfortunately, some boards return extra data in the upper bits. The current implementation ends up leaving these bits in the converted value. Mask the converted value to ensure that any extra bits are removed.
