time/jiffies: Fix sysctl file error on configurations where USER_HZ < HZ
Commit 2dc164a48e6fd ("sysctl: Create converter functions with two new macros") incorrectly returns error to user space when jiffies sysctl converter is used. The old overflow check got replaced with an unconditional one: + if (USER_HZ < HZ) + return -EINVAL; which will always be true on configurations with "USER_HZ < HZ". Remove the check; it is no longer needed as clock_t_to_jiffies() returns ULONG_MAX for the overflow case and proc_int_u2k_conv_uop() checks for "> INT_MAX" after conversion Fixes: 2dc164a48e6fd ("sysctl: Create converter functions with two new macros") Reported-by: Colm Harrington <colm.harrington@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Gerd Rausch <gerd.rausch@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Granados <joel.granados@kernel.org>
