In the lm3630a_chip_init we try to write to 0x50 register, which is
higher value then the max_register value, this resulted in regmap_write
return -EIO.
Fix this by bumping REG_MAX value to 0x50.
This code was introduced with the chip revision in commit 28e64a68a2ef,
however setting filter strength was failing silently because it used
unsigned int for storing and comparing the return values. Bug related to
signedness was fixed in 2a0c316bf3cc, which made it error out correctly
instead of failing silently.
I found this issue by using this driver on LGE Nexus 5 (hammerhead).
After this commit lm3630a_chip_init succeeds instead of failing with
-EIO.
