The 104-QUAD-8 only has two count modes where a ceiling value makes
sense: Range Limit and Modulo-N. Outside of these two modes, setting a
ceiling value is an invalid operation -- so let's report it as such by
returning -EINVAL.

Fixes: fc069262261c ("counter: 104-quad-8: Add lock guards - generic interface")
Acked-by: Syed Nayyar Waris <redacted>
Signed-off-by: William Breathitt Gray <redacted>
Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing for 0-day to have
fun.

As an aside, I got the warning:
  CHECK   drivers/counter/104-quad-8.c
drivers/counter/104-quad-8.c:58: warning: Function parameter or member 'lock' not described in 'quad8'

Which might be nice to clean up, but has nothing much to do with this patch.
