* [PATCH] hwmon: (nct6775) Clamp voltage limits before narrowing and scaling

From: zhujun <zhujun2@cmss.chinamobile.com>

store_in_reg() parses an unsigned long, but in_to_reg() takes a u32 and
multiplies it by 100 before clamping. Large limits can therefore wrap to
a low register value. For example, 4294967296 mV becomes zero on a
64-bit system.

Keep the input as an unsigned long and bound it to the register range
before scaling.

Fixes: 9de2e2e84e7d ("hwmon: Driver for Nuvoton NCT6775F, NCT6776F, and NCT6779D")
---
Validation: x86-64 and i386 driver objects built with W=1.
Source-extracted boundary tests passed on 32-bit and 64-bit;
the corresponding test fails on the base revision. I/O is mocked.
No physical sensor hardware or booted-kernel test was available.
OpenAI Codex assisted analysis, code, tests and changelog drafting.
The human submitter must review and add their Signed-off-by.

[Severity: Low]
Since this fixes an integer truncation and overflow in in_to_reg(), should
it include a Fixes tag:

[Severity: Low]
This fixes a bug in in_to_reg() where values parsed by store_in_reg()
can wrap when narrowed and scaled.  Should this include:
