[PATCH v2 1/1] iio: core: Fix fractional format generation

From: Alexander Stein
Date: Thu Aug 22 2019 - 09:44:06 EST


In case the result is -0.3252 tmp0 is 0 after the div_s64_rem, so tmp0 is
non-negative which results in an output of 0.3252.
Fix this by explicitly handling the negative sign ourselves.

Changes in v2:
* Support vals[0] >= and vals[1] < 0 in IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL
* Note: IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL is untested, as I lack hardware
* Note2: Currently IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL is only called with vals[1] from
in-kernel drivers AFAICS
