kstrtoint() returns "0 on success, -ERANGE on overflow

manager_sysfs_remove_store() and manager_sysfs_dump_store()
checked for 1 which always failed the operation. I fixed this.

Doesn't checkpatch now complain about this?
No.

(Ok, sure, it says "Missing Signed-off-by:",
but https://lkml.org/lkml/diff/2026/5/20/2139/1
shows only the diff itself, not the headers.)
