4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric Dumazet edumazet@google.com
Giving an integer to proc_doulongvec_minmax() is dangerous on 64bit arches, since linker might place next to it a non zero value preventing a change to ip6frag_low_thresh.
ip6frag_low_thresh is not used anymore in the kernel, but we do not want to prematuraly break user scripts wanting to change it.
Since specifying a minimal value of 0 for proc_doulongvec_minmax() is moot, let's remove these zero values in all defrag units.
