[PATCH v3 5/5] sysctl: add unsigned int range support

From: Luis R. Rodriguez
Date: Thu May 18 2017 - 23:36:22 EST


To keep parity with regular int interfaces provide the an unsigned
int proc_douintvec_minmax() which allows you to specify a range of
allowed valid numbers.

Adding proc_douintvec_minmax_sysadmin() is easy but we can wait for
an actual user for that.
