This is a rather poor description of the symptoms. The typical result
from the bug is that you can't actually set the hysteresis value, the
driver with fail with "write error: Numerical result out of range".
Writing an hysteresis value above the critical limit to get the driver
to set it below that limit, is the workaround, not the symptom.
Also, the function is called store_hyst(), not set_hyst().

Anyway, fix is correct, good catch.

This should go to stable trees. Guenter, I'll let you deal with this,
thanks.
