Subject: [PATCH] brcm80211: fix wrap around in conversion from constant to s16

The last value in the log_table wraps around to a negative value
since s16 has a value range of -32768 to 32767. This is not what
the table intends to represent. Use the closest positive value
32767.

This fixes a warning seen with clang:
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_qmath.c:216:2: warning:
      implicit conversion from 'int' to 's16' (aka 'short') changes
value from 32768
      to -32768 [-Wconstant-conversion]
        32768
        ^~~~~
