[PATCH V4] iio: gp2ap020a00f: Fix signedness bug

[Haowen Bai]

function gp2ap020a00f_get_thresh_reg() is unsigned but returning -EINVAL
errcode, and thresh_reg_l is unsigned but receiving -EINVAL errcode. so
we have to change u8 -> int. Also we need to do index bound check at
gp2ap020a00f_read_event_val().

Signed-off-by: Haowen Bai <baihaowen@xxxxxxxxx>
---
V1->V2: s8 is not enough to hold an (arbitrary) error code. To be on the safe
side we need to use int.
V2->V3: add bound check at gp2ap020a00f_read_event_val().
V3->V4: 
1. add fix tag.
2. add check before use at gp2ap020a00f_write_event_val().
3. returns an error we should pass that on unchanged at
gp2ap020a00f_read_event_val()
