Subject: [PATCH v3] staging: vt6656: Add formula to the vnt_rf_addpower function

Use a formula to calculate the return value of the vnt_rf_addpower
function instead of the "if" statement with literal values for every
case.

Changelog v1 -> v2
- Change the type of "base" variable from s32 to int as Dan Carpenter
  suggested.
- Remove the "--" postoperator and replace with (base - 1) as Dan
  Carpenter suggested. Also, as this expression has a minus before the
  parenthesis, remove it an apply the minus operator changing the sign of
  "base" and literal "1".

Changelog v2 -> v3
- Replace ternary operators with the equivalents "if" statements as Greg
  Kroah-Hartman suggested.
