Writes into limit registers fail if the temperature written is negative. The regmap write operation checks the value range, regmap_write accepts an unsigned int as parameter, and the temperature value passed to regmap_write is kept in a variable declared as long. Negative values are converted large unsigned integers, which fails the range check. Fix by type casting the temperature to u16 when calling regmap_write().
