When we decode the latency and the max_latency, u16 value may not fit
the required size and could lead to the wrong LTR representation.
Scaling is represented as:
scale 0 - 1 (2^(5*0)) = 2^0
scale 1 - 32 (2^(5 *1))= 2^5
scale 2 - 1024 (2^(5 *2)) =2^10
scale 3 - 32768 (2^(5 *3)) =2^15
scale 4 - 1048576 (2^(5 *4)) = 2^20
scale 5 - 33554432 (2^(5 *4)) = 2^25
scale 4 and scale 5 required 20 and 25 bits respectively.
scale 6 reserved.
Replace the u16 type with the u32 type and allow corrected LTR
representation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
