My intention was to make the code handling the 8-bit temperature
thresholds look the same as that handling the 9-bit temperature reading.
A moot point if we're moving in a new direction.

Noted. I was following suit with the existing TEMP_TO_REG above.

I didn't know sign_extend() existed, thanks for pointing it out.

I'll give that a go and send a v2.

Yeah I'd noted that too. This patch is actually a port of changes we've
made to a custom LM81 driver based on the original adm9240 driver which
included some error handling. I'll look at bringing more of that code in
for a future patch.
