HID: picolcd: Use min() macro to simplify code

This commit replaces an open-coded minimum check with the standard min()
macro in hid-picolcd_debugfs.c. It simplifies the logic for limiting the
read size for EEPROM data.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but while reviewing this function, can a
malicious or buggy USB device cause an out-of-bounds read here?

If a user reads from the eeprom file with a large size, for example 
s = 256, and a malicious device responds with a REPORT_EE_DATA containing
a large embedded length field in resp->raw_data[2] up to 255, ret will take
that device-controlled value.

Since ret (255) would not be greater than s (256), this copy_to_user()
call could attempt to copy up to 255 bytes. 

Given that resp->raw_data is a fixed 64-byte array, does this allow reading
past the end of the struct picolcd_pending heap allocation and leaking
adjacent kernel heap memory to userspace?
