[PATCH] sysctl: remove duplicate UINT_MAX check on do_proc_douintvec_conv()

From: Luis R. Rodriguez
Date: Tue Sep 19 2017 - 03:29:27 EST


do_proc_douintvec_conv() has two UINT_MAX checks, we can remove one.
This has no functional changes other than fixing a compiler warning:

kernel/sysctl.c:2190]: (warning) Identical condition '*lvalp>UINT_MAX', second condition is always false
