[PATCH net 1/1] proc/sysctl: Fix the int overflow for jiffies conversion

[gfree . wind]

From: Gao Feng <fgao@xxxxxxxxxx>

The function do_proc_dointvec_jiffies_conv uses LONG_MX/HZ as the
max value to avoid overflow. But actually the *valp is int type, so
it still causes overflow.

For example,
echo 2147483647 > ./sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time
Then,
cat ./sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time
The output is "-1", it is not expected.

Now use INT_MAX/HZ as the max value instead LONG_MAX/HZ to fix it.
