usb: atm: usbatm: fix invalid ci_range initialization

syzbot reported a shift-out-of-bounds in __vcc_connect():

UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in net/atm/common.c:382:32

ATM device ci_range fields (vpi_bits and vci_bits) represent the
number of bits supported for VPI and VCI addressing on the device.
net/atm/common.c directly uses these fields as bit shift counts:
vpi >> dev->ci_range.vpi_bits
vci >> dev->ci_range.vci_bits
1 << vcc->dev->ci_range.vpi_bits
1 << vcc->dev->ci_range.vci_bits

usbatm_atm_init() sets ci_range.vpi_bits and ci_range.vci_bits to
ATM_CI_MAX (-1), which is defined in <uapi/linux/atmdev.h> as a
sentinel value for userspace ATM_SETCIRANGE requests, not a valid bit
count. Shifting by -1 is undefined behavior and triggers UBSAN
warnings.

ATM UNI cell headers allow up to 8 bits for VPI (0..255) and 16 bits
for VCI (0..65535). Initialize vpi_bits to 8 and vci_bits to 16, as
done by solos-pci.
