Luis R. Rodriguez 434b06ae23 test_kmod: fix bug which allows negative values on two config options
Parsing with kstrtol() enables values to be negative, and we failed to
check for negative values when parsing with test_dev_config_update_uint_sync()
or test_dev_config_update_uint_range().

test_dev_config_update_uint_range() has a minimum check though so an
issue is not present there.  test_dev_config_update_uint_sync() is only
used for the number of threads to use (config_num_threads_store()), and
indeed this would fail with an attempt for a large allocation.

Although the issue is only present in practice with the first fix both
by using kstrtoul() instead of kstrtol().

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
