The temperature reading function was using a signed long for the ADC
code, which could lead to mishandling of invalid codes on 32-bit
platforms. This allowed out-of-range ADC codes to be incorrectly
interpreted as valid values and used in temperature calculations.
Change adc_code to u32 to ensure that invalid ADC codes are correctly
identified on all platforms.
