When implementing the Ebox44 quirk, I found I needed this. The min and max
would be automatically completed for the S16 values, but not for the mute
buttons, so I defaulted to the range required for the BOOLEAN.
I was really hoping some one would explain this when I RFC'd the patch.
But at that time the code was not part of some general-purpose function so
it wasn't really an issue.
