Right, the TLV min/max corresponds to the control values, and they
don't mean the raw register values.

BTW, this thread made me wonder whether it makes sense to give some
sanity checks (maybe with CONFIG_SND_DEBUG) in ALSA core.
e.g. read_tlv_buf() in sound/core/control.c can perform some tests
before actually passing to user-space.
