[PATCH 6/8] iio: accel: mma9553: check input value for activity period

From: Irina Tirdea
Date: Wed Apr 08 2015 - 10:38:29 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 suuccesfully written to device.
