[PATCH] pipe: reject oversized pipe-max-size sysctl writes

[Hungyu Lin]

On 64-bit kernels, the unsigned long sysctl input is truncated before
round_pipe_size() checks it as an unsigned int. Writing 4294967296 to
pipe-max-size therefore succeeds and stores PAGE_SIZE.

Reject values above UINT_MAX before narrowing them, so the sysctl
handler returns EINVAL without changing the stored limit.

Fixes: 515c5046650d ("pipe: Pass argument of pipe_fcntl as int")
