Eiichi Tsukata d8655e7630 EDAC: Fix global-out-of-bounds write when setting edac_mc_poll_msec
Commit 9da21b1509 ("EDAC: Poll timeout cannot be zero, p2") assumes
edac_mc_poll_msec to be unsigned long, but the type of the variable still
remained as int. Setting edac_mc_poll_msec can trigger out-of-bounds
write.

Reproducer:

  # echo 1001 > /sys/module/edac_core/parameters/edac_mc_poll_msec

KASAN report:

   ffffffffb91b2e00: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

Fix it by changing the type of edac_mc_poll_msec to unsigned int.
The reason why this patch adopts unsigned int rather than unsigned long
is msecs_to_jiffies() assumes arg to be unsigned int. We can avoid
integer conversion bugs and unsigned int will be large enough for
edac_mc_poll_msec.

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.
