Subject: [PATCH] counter: stm32-timer-cnt: fix ceiling write max value

The ceiling value isn't checked before writing it into registers. The user
could write a value higher than the counter resolution (e.g. 16 or 32 bits
indicated by max_arr). This makes most significant bits to be truncated.
Fix it by checking the max_arr to report a range error [1] to the user.

Fixes: ad29937e206f ("counter: Add STM32 Timer quadrature encoder")
