Subject: [PATCH] iio: addac: ad74413r: fix integer promotion bug in ad74413_get_input_current_offset()

The constant AD74413R_ADC_RESULT_MAX is defined via GENMASK, so its
type is "unsigned long".

Hence in the expression voltage_offset * AD74413R_ADC_RESULT_MAX,
voltage_offset is first promoted to unsigned long, and since it may be
negative, that results in a garbage value. For example, when range is
AD74413R_ADC_RANGE_5V_BI_DIR, voltage_offset is -2500 and
voltage_range is 5000, so the RHS of this assignment is, depending on
sizeof(long), either 826225UL or 3689348814709142UL, which after
truncation to int then results in either 826225 or 1972216214 being
the output from in_currentX_offset.

Casting to int avoids that promotion and results in the correct -32767
output.
