[PATCH v2 2/3] backlight: aw99706: Validate all DT property values consistently

Message-ID <[email protected]>
The lookup helpers for dim-mode and ramp-ctl take a shortcut when
lookup_tbl is NULL: they accept any u32 value without range-checking
and return success unconditionally. Out-of-range values get silently
truncated by regmap_update_bits instead of triggering the dev_warn +
default-fallback path that the other properties use.

Add a field-width check for the NULL-table case so that values
exceeding the register field maximum are rejected the same way a
table-lookup miss is.

While here, also switch the error returns to -EINVAL for consistency.
