[PATCH v2 02/17] iio: accel: mma9553: check input value for activity period

From: Irina Tirdea
Date: Mon Apr 13 2015 - 11:41:58 EST


When setting the activity period, the value introduced by
the user in sysfs is not checked for validity.

Add a boundary check so that only allowed values are
reported as successfully written to device.
