From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kernel/sysctl.c: remove duplicate UINT_MAX check on do_proc_douintvec_conv() 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 Fixes: 4f2fec00afa60 ("sysctl: simplify unsigned int support") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170919072918.12066-1-mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Luis R.
