Subject[PATCH 1/2] test_kmod: remove paranoid UINT_MAX check on uint range processing
Date
From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

The UINT_MAX comparison is not needed because "max" is already an unsigned
int, and we expect developer C code max value input to have a sensible
0 - UINT_MAX range. Note that if it so happens to be UINT_MAX + 1 it
would lead to an issue, but we expect the developer to know this.
