net-tcp: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval is a u32 not int

(fix documentation and sysctl access to treat it as such) Tested: # zcat /proc/config.gz | egrep ^CONFIG_HZ CONFIG_HZ_1000=y CONFIG_HZ=1000 # echo $[(1<<32)/1000 + 1] | tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval 4294968 tee: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval: Invalid argument # echo $[(1<<32)/1000] | tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval 4294967 # echo 0 | tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval # echo -1 | tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval -1 tee: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_probe_interval: Invalid argument Signed-off-by: Maciej Żenczykowski <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
