sysctl: handle overflow for file-max

sysctl: handle overflow for file-max

Currently, when writing

  echo 18446744073709551616 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max

/proc/sys/fs/file-max will overflow and be set to 0.  That quickly
crashes the system.

This commit sets the max and min value for file-max.  The max value is
set to long int.  Any higher value cannot currently be used as the
percpu counters are long ints and not unsigned integers.

Note that the file-max value is ultimately parsed via
__do_proc_doulongvec_minmax().  This function does not report error when
min or max are exceeded.  Which means if a value largen that long int is
written userspace will not receive an error instead the old value will be
kept.  There is an argument to be made that this should be changed and
__do_proc_doulongvec_minmax() should return an error when a dedicated min
or max value are exceeded.  However this has the potential to break
userspace so let's defer this to an RFC patch.
