I think there is a misunderstanding:
if the class provides max_x (so > 0), or min_x, that means that the
person in charge of adding the driver wants to replace the two values
min/max.
No need for a quirk that will be redundant with the hand-provided values.

It won't change anything to other devices as they do not provide min/max.
