[PATCH] ipc: Limit sysctl value to IPCMNI

[Takashi Iwai]

Currently shmmni proc entry accepts all entered integer values, but
the practical limit is IPCMNI (32768).  This confuses user as if a
bigger value were accepted but not applied correctly.

This patch changes the proc entry to use *_minmax variant to limit the
accepted values accordingly.
