[PATCH][next] hwmon: (aspeed-pwm-tacho) Fix -Wstringop-overflow warning in aspeed_create_fan_tach_channel()

Based on the documentation below, the maximum number of Fan tach
channels is 16:

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwmon/aspeed-pwm-tacho.txt:45:
 45 - aspeed,fan-tach-ch : should specify the Fan tach input channel.
 46                 integer value in the range 0 through 15, with 0 indicating
 47                 Fan tach channel 0 and 15 indicating Fan tach channel 15.
 48                 At least one Fan tach input channel is required.

However, the compiler doesn't know that, and legitimaly warns about a potential
overwrite in array `u8 fan_tach_ch_source[16]` in `struct aspeed_pwm_tacho_data`,
in case `index` takes a value outside the boundaries of the array:

drivers/hwmon/aspeed-pwm-tacho.c:
179 struct aspeed_pwm_tacho_data {
...
184         bool fan_tach_present[16];
...
193         u8 fan_tach_ch_source[16];
...
196 };

In function ‘aspeed_create_fan_tach_channel’,
    inlined from ‘aspeed_create_fan’ at drivers/hwmon/aspeed-pwm-tacho.c:877:2,
    inlined from ‘aspeed_pwm_tacho_probe’ at drivers/hwmon/aspeed-pwm-tacho.c:936:9:
drivers/hwmon/aspeed-pwm-tacho.c:751:49: warning: writing 1 byte into a region of size 0 [-Wstringop-overflow=]
  751 |                 priv->fan_tach_ch_source[index] = pwm_source;
      |                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/hwmon/aspeed-pwm-tacho.c: In function ‘aspeed_pwm_tacho_probe’:
drivers/hwmon/aspeed-pwm-tacho.c:193:12: note: at offset [48, 255] into destination object ‘fan_tach_ch_source’ of size 16
  193 |         u8 fan_tach_ch_source[16];
      |            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix this by sanity checking `index` before using it to index arrays of
size 16 elements in `struct aspeed_pwm_tacho_data`. Also, and just for
completeness, add a `pr_err()` message to display in the unlikely case
`0 > index >= 16`.

This is probably the last remaining -Wstringop-overflow issue in the
kernel, and this patch helps with the ongoing efforts to enable such
compiler option globally.
