H A Dsysctl.cdiff 1622ed7d0743201293094162c26019d2573ecacb Sat Jan 22 00:13:48 CST 2022 Baokun Li <libaokun1@huawei.com> sysctl: returns -EINVAL when a negative value is passed to proc_doulongvec_minmax

When we pass a negative value to the proc_doulongvec_minmax() function,
the function returns 0, but the corresponding interface value does not
change.

we can easily reproduce this problem with the following commands:

cd /proc/sys/fs/epoll
echo -1 > max_user_watches; echo $?; cat max_user_watches

This function requires a non-negative number to be passed in, so when a
negative number is passed in, -EINVAL is returned.
