Add a helper function to make it easier for a driver to invert abs
values when needed. It is up to the driver itself to track axes that
need to be inverted and normalize the data before it is passed on.

This function assumes that drivers will set the min and max values
so that min < max and then will simply call this function each time
the values need to be inverted.

I do not think this is generic enough (i.e. sometimes you have a
theoretical range in which you want to invert that is bigger than the
normal min/max - see synaptics_invert_y()), so I would prefer this be
lolcal to the ADC joystick driver, at least for now.

Thanks.
