[PATCH] sysctl : proc_dointvec_minmax() expects int values formin/max guard values

[Eric Dumazet]

min_sched_granularity_ns, max_sched_granularity_ns, min_wakeup_granularity_ns 
and max_wakeup_granularity_ns are declared "unsigned long".

This is incorrect since proc_dointvec_minmax() expects plain "int" guard values.

This bug only triggers on big endian 64 bit arches.
