Commit ed4d4902ebdd ("mm, hugetlb: remove hugetlb_zero and hugetlb_infinity") replaced
'unsigned long hugetlb_zero' with 'int zero' leading to out-of-bounds access
in proc_doulongvec_minmax().
Use '.extra1 = NULL' instead of '.extra1 = &zero'. Passing NULL is equivalent to
passing minimal value, which is 0 for unsigned types.
