Cache set congested threshold values congested_read_threshold_us and congested_write_threshold_us can be set via sysfs interface. These two values are 'unsigned int' type, but sysfs interface uses strtoul to convert input string. So if people input a large number like 9999999999, the value indeed set is 1410065407, which is not expected behavior. This patch replaces sysfs_strtoul() by sysfs_strtoul_clamp() when convert input string to unsigned int value, and set value range in [0, UINT_MAX], to avoid the above integer overflow errors.

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 Restructured Text 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.
