FAN16_TO_REG() doubles an unrestricted positive long and adds 1350000
before dividing. Large fan limits can overflow these intermediate values
and select an incorrect tachometer limit. Converting LONG_MAX can select
0xfffe instead of 1.

Apply the same RPM bound used by the 8-bit conversion before doing the
arithmetic. Keep zero as the alarm-disable value.

Fixes: 17d648bf5786 ("it87: Add support for the IT8716F")
---
Validation: x86-64 and i386 driver objects built with W=1.
Source-extracted boundary tests passed on both word sizes;
the corresponding test fails on the base revision. I/O is mocked.
No physical sensor or booted-kernel testing was available.
OpenAI Codex assisted analysis, code, tests and changelog drafting.
Please review and add your own Signed-off-by before submitting.
