H A Dtda10071.ca7463e2d Mon Feb 10 08:26:46 CST 2020 Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> media: tda10071: fix unsigned sign extension overflow

The shifting of buf[3] by 24 bits to the left will be promoted to
a 32 bit signed int and then sign-extended to an unsigned long. In
the unlikely event that the the top bit of buf[3] is set then all
then all the upper bits end up as also being set because of
the sign-extension and this affect the ev->post_bit_error sum.
Fix this by using the temporary u32 variable bit_error to avoid
the sign-extension promotion. This also removes the need to do the
computation twice.
