4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit 8c27a3953e92eb0b22dbb03d599f543a05f9574e ] People may set sequential_cutoff of a cached device via sysfs file, but current code does not check input value overflow. E.g. if value 4294967295 (UINT_MAX) is written to file sequential_cutoff, its value is 4GB, but if 4294967296 (UINT_MAX + 1) is written into, its value will be 0. This is an unexpected behavior. This patch replaces d_strtoi_h() by sysfs_strtoul_clamp() to convert input string to unsigned integer value, and limit its range in [0, UINT_MAX]. Then the input overflow can be fixed.
