sysctl: add unsigned int range support
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. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170519033554.18592-6-mcgrof@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.
