The scpi hwmon shows the sub-zero temperature in an unsigned integer,
which would confuse the users when the machine works in low temperature
environment. This shows the sub-zero temperature in an signed value and
users can get it properly from sensors.

Changes since v1:
- Add judgment for sensor->info.class. If it is TEMPERATURE situation,
return the sensor value as a signed value, otherwise return it as a
unsigned value.
Changes since v2:
- Add a typecast u64 to s64 when it is a temperature value.
- Add a comment ahead of the if statement.
- Remove the unnecessary 'else' statement.
