commit 1195d94e00 upstream.
proc_dointvec_minmax() returns zero if a new value has been set. So we
don't need to check all charecters have been handled.
Below you can find two examples. In the new value has not been handled
properly.
$ strace ./a.out
open("/proc/sys/kernel/auto_msgmni", O_WRONLY) = 3
write(3, "0\n\0", 3) = 2
close(3) = 0
exit_group(0)
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
$strace ./a.out
open("/proc/sys/kernel/auto_msgmni", O_WRONLY) = 3
write(3, "0\n", 2) = 2
close(3) = 0
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
a.out-697 [000] .... 3280.998235: unregister_ipcns_notifier <-proc_ipcauto_dointvec_minmax
Fixes: 9eefe520c8 ("ipc: do not use a negative value to re-enable msgmni automatic recomputin")
