Since its conception in 2012 brightness has been artificially capped
at 127 since the variable carrying the value is u8.  We could go to
the trouble of changing the whole API (crossing 3 different subsystems),
but clearly this hasn't bothered anyone in the best part of a decade.

Simply, cap BRIGHTNESS_MAX to 127 instead (for now at least).

Fixes the following W=1 warning(s):

 drivers/mfd/lm3533-ctrlbank.c: In function ‘lm3533_ctrlbank_set_brightness’:
 drivers/mfd/lm3533-ctrlbank.c:98:10: warning: comparison is always false due 
to limited range of data type [-Wtype-limits]
 98 | if (val > LM3533_##_NAME##_MAX) | ^
 drivers/mfd/lm3533-ctrlbank.c:125:1: note: in expansion of macro 
‘lm3533_ctrlbank_set’
 125 | lm3533_ctrlbank_set(brightness, BRIGHTNESS);
