commit e4c3e133294c0a292d21073899b05ebf530169bd upstream. 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.
