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.

Acked-by: Syed Nayyar Waris <redacted>
Signed-off-by: William Breathitt Gray <redacted>We seem to have some inconsistency in the driver about whether we hold the priv->lock when calling quad8_preset_register_set() Can we look to make that consistent?
