Please add a Fixes tag if possible.

You need to check this val after the function call, but before it is used.

If a function returns an error we should pass that on unchanged 
Here the value is the same, but none the less we should have this look something
like.

	if (thresh_reg_l < 0)
		return thresh_reg_l;
	if (thresh_reg_l > GP2AP020A00F_PH_L_REG)
	...
