Baokun Li 9e8e819f8f ext4: avoid overflow when setting values via sysfs
When setting values of type unsigned int through sysfs, we use kstrtoul()
to parse it and then truncate part of it as the final set value, when the
set value is greater than UINT_MAX, the set value will not match what we
see because of the truncation. As follows:

  $ echo 4294967296 > /sys/fs/ext4/sda/mb_max_linear_groups
  $ cat /sys/fs/ext4/sda/mb_max_linear_groups
    0

So we use kstrtouint() to parse the attr_pointer_ui type to avoid the
inconsistency described above. In addition, a judgment is added to avoid
setting s_resv_clusters less than 0.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
