Subject: [PATCH 3.5 63/71] p54: clamp properly instead of just truncating

3.5.7.33 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit 608cfbe4abaf76e9d732efd7ed1cfa3998163d91 upstream.

The call to clamp_t() first truncates the variable signed 8 bit and as a
result, the actual clamp is a no-op.

Fixes: 0d78156eef1d ('p54: improve site survey')
