I would be tempted to ignore that and use the more appropriate size, but be
careful that any necessary casts are in place when you use the value.

If you get an error, e.g. if (*adc_humidty == BMP280_HUMIDITY_SKIPPED) then you
should not set *adc_humidity. Setting it is the side effect. Normal aim
is that a function that returns an error should ensure it leave no other
effects in data it can access.
This make reasoning about error paths much simpler because you only
have to deal with the return values.
Hence the code example I included though I make it more confusing by
commenting on the types in the middle of the code.
Key is I don't want *adc_humidity to be modified if we aren't going to
return 0.

As you are tidying up the code, drop the unnecessary cast. Good to mention it
in the patch description though.

What they have is not incorrect, but it is relaxed in a rather lazy fashion!

I'd take the datasheet maths as 'an implementation' rather than something
we have to match. So go for types that make sense, not what they used!
