[linux,dev-6.12,v1 7/9] hwmon: (ina238) Correctly clamp temperature

[Peter Yin]

From: Chris Packham <chris.packham at alliedtelesis.co.nz>

ina238_write_temp() was attempting to clamp the user input but was
throwing away the result. Ensure that we clamp the value to the
appropriate range before it is converted into a register value.
