The patch titled Subject: sysctl: add unsigned int range support has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was sysctl-add-unsigned-int-range-support.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: 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@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Luis R.
