staging: comedi: ni_6527: Use 16-bit 0 for interrupt data

The ni_6527 driver has an "interrupt" subdevice that supports Comedi
asynchronous commands, placing a value in the Comedi buffer for each
interrupt.  The subdevice uses Comedi's 16-bit sample format but the
interrupt handler is calling `comedi_buf_write_samples()` with the
address of a 32-bit integer `&s->state`.  On bigendian machines, this
will copy 2 bytes from the wrong end of the 32-bit integer.  This isn't
really a problem since `s->state` will always be 0 for this subdevice,
but clean it up by using a 16-bit variable initialized to 0 to pass the
value.
