The IRQ number passed via comedi_devconfig->options[1] is a signed int
that comes from userspace. The check `it->options[1] <= 7` does not
reject negative values, so a negative IRQ number reaches
`BIT(it->options[1])`, which is undefined behavior and triggers a UBSAN
shift-out-of-bounds warning:

UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in drivers/comedi/drivers/dt2811.c:570:31
shift exponent -251 is negative

Add an explicit lower bound check (`it->options[1] >= 0`) so that only
valid IRQ numbers 0..7 are accepted before the shift.

Looks good, thanks!

Please could you resend and Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ? Thanks!
