commit 54999c0d94b3c26625f896f8e3460bc029821578 upstream.
The analog input subdevice supports Comedi asynchronous commands that use Comedi's 16-bit sample format. However, the call to `comedi_buf_write_samples()` is passing the address of a 32-bit integer variable. On bigendian machines, this will copy 2 bytes from the wrong end of the 32-bit value. Fix it by changing the type of the variable holding the sample value to `unsigned short`.
[Note: the bug was introduced in commit 1700529b24cc ("staging: comedi: dmm32at: use comedi_buf_write_samples()") but the patch applies better to the later (but in the same kernel release) commit 0c0eadadcbe6e ("staging: comedi: dmm32at: introduce dmm32_ai_get_sample()").]
