[PATCH] hwmon: (max6621) fix negative temperature offset and crit readings

max6621_read() reads the temperature input, offset and critical alert
registers into a u32 and assigns them to the output without sign
extension. The device reports these values in two's complement (the
driver comment and the write path, which clamps to
MAX6621_TEMP_INPUT_MIN == -127000 and encodes negatives, both rely on
this), so negative values are misreported as large positive numbers:

  - temp_offset: *val = (regval >> MAX6621_REG_TEMP_SHIFT) * 1000, an
    unsigned shift, so e.g. a -10 degrees C offset (register 0xfd80)
    reads back as ~+1014000 millidegrees.
  - temp_crit: *val = regval * 1000, so a negative critical threshold
    reads back as a large positive value.
  - temp_input used an s8 intermediate, which is correct for the
    -127..127 range but reports the documented +128 degrees C maximum as
    -128 degrees C.

The registers are 16-bit (the driver's own PECI error codes occupy
0x8000-0x80ff), so sign-extend from bit 15 before scaling. This fixes
all three reads and drops the now-unused s8 intermediate.
