SENSORS_LIMIT and clamp_val have the same functionality, so retire SENSORS_LIMIT
as it is no longer needed.

What to do if a value is found to be invalid, depends on the type of the

sysfs attribute that is being set. If it is a continuous setting like a

tempX_max or inX_max attribute, then the value should be clamped to its

limits using SENSORS_LIMIT(value, min_limit, max_limit). If it is not

continuous like for example a tempX_type, then when an invalid value is

written, -EINVAL should be returned.

Example1, temp1_max, register is a signed 8 bit value (-128 - 127 degrees):



	long v = simple_strtol(buf, NULL, 10) / 1000;

	v = SENSORS_LIMIT(v, -128, 127);

	v = clamp_val(v, -128, 127);

	/* write v to register */
