isl28022_read_power() computes:
*val = ((51200000L * ((long)data->gain)) /
(long)data->shunt) * (long)regval;
On 32-bit platforms, 'long' is 32 bits. With gain=8 and shunt=10000
(the default configuration):
(51200000 * 8) / 10000 = 40960
40960 * 65535 = 2,684,313,600
This exceeds LONG_MAX (2,147,483,647), resulting in signed integer
overflow.
Additionally, dividing before multiplying by regval loses precision
unnecessarily.
Use u64 arithmetic with div_u64() and multiply before dividing to
retain precision. The intermediate product cannot overflow u64
(worst case: 51200000 * 8 * 65535 = 26843136000000). Power is
inherently non-negative, so unsigned types are the natural fit.
Cap the result to LONG_MAX before returning it through the hwmon
callback.

v4:
- Submit as standalone patch, no code changes
v3:
- Use min()/div_u64() one-liner instead of clamp_val() + tmp
variable, per review feedback
- Add overflow justification to commit message
v2:
- Switch from s64/div_s64() to u64/div_u64() since power is
inherently non-negative

Applied.
