[PATCH v2] sched/deadline: Use proc_douintvec_minmax() limit minimum value

From: Yajun Deng
Date: Tue Jun 07 2022 - 06:18:38 EST


sysctl_sched_dl_period_max and sysctl_sched_dl_period_min are unsigned
integer, but proc_dointvec() wouldn't return error even if we set a
negative number.

Use proc_douintvec_minmax() instead of proc_dointvec(). Add extra1 for
sysctl_sched_dl_period_max and extra2 for sysctl_sched_dl_period_min.

It's just an optimization for match data and proc_handler in struct
ctl_table. The 'if (period < min || period > max)' in __checkparam_dl()
will work fine even if there hasn't this patch.

v2:
- update the log message.
